4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Arend Van Spriel <arend.vanspriel@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit d77facb88448cdeaaa3adba5b9704a48ac2ac8d6 upstream. A use-after-free was found using KASAN. In brcmf_p2p_del_if() the virtual interface is removed using call to brcmf_remove_interface(). After that the virtual interface instance has been freed and should not be referenced. Solve this by storing the nl80211 iftype in local variable, which is used in a couple of places anyway.
