    mac80211: check interface is down before type change · c1f9a764
    Johannes Berg 提交于
    For some strange reason the netif_running() check
    ended up after the actual type change instead of
    before, potentially causing all kinds of problems
    if the interface is up while changing the type;
    one of the problems manifests itself as a warning:
