cfg80211: process pending events when unregistering net device
libertas currently calls cfg80211_disconnected() when it is being brought down. This causes an event to be allocated, but since the wdev is already removed from the rdev by the time that the event processing work executes, the event is never processed or freed. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/95666 Fix this leak, and other possible situations, by processing the event queue when a device is being unregistered. Thanks to Johannes Berg for the suggestion. Signed-off-by: NDaniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.
