From 8db4c7e25d153fb049e81715d72fa3be3a0c3b69 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stanislaw Gruszka Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2012 08:01:15 -0700 Subject: iwlwifi: do not nulify ctx->vif on reset ctx->vif is dereferenced in different part of iwlwifi code, so do not nullify it. This should address at least one of the possible reasons of WARNING at iwlagn_mac_remove_interface, and perhaps some random crashes when firmware reset is performed.
