wifi: ath9k: Fix use-after-free in ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect()
[ Upstream commit f099c5c9e2ba08a379bd354a82e05ef839ae29ac ]
This patch fixes a use-after-free in ath9k that occurs in
ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect() when ath9k_destroy_wmi() is trying to access
'drv_priv' that has already been freed by ieee80211_free_hw(), called by
ath9k_htc_hw_deinit(). The patch moves ath9k_destroy_wmi() before
ieee80211_free_hw(). Note that urbs from the driver should be killed
before freeing 'wmi' with ath9k_destroy_wmi() as their callbacks will
access 'wmi'.
Found by a modified version of syzkaller.
