Subject: [PATCH] wifi: ath11k: fix suspend use-after-free after probe failure
Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2025 10:20:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250624082022.15469-1-johan+linaro@kernel.org> (raw)
Make sure to deregister the PM notifier to avoid a use-after-free on
suspend in case core initialisation fails (e.g. due to missing
firmware).
Fixes: 32d93b51bc7e ("wifi: ath11k: choose default PM policy for hibernation")
