Subject: mac80211_hwsim: release driver when ieee80211_register_hw fails
From: Junjie Mao <eternal.n08@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 805dbe17d1c832ad341f14fae8cedf41b67ca6fa upstream.
The driver is not released when ieee80211_register_hw fails in
mac80211_hwsim_create_radio, leading to the access to the unregistered (and
possibly freed) device in platform_driver_unregister:
