Subject: [PATCH] netdev: fix crash in the RSSI polling fallback workaround
Date: Thu,  3 Oct 2024 05:58:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241003125817.75004-1-prestwoj@gmail.com> (raw)

Prior to adding the polling fallback this code path was only used for
signal level list notifications and netdev_rssi_polling_update() was
structured as such, where if the RSSI list feature existed there was
nothing to be done as the kernel handled the notifications.

For certain mediatek cards this is broken, hence why the fallback was
added. But netdev_rssi_polling_update() was never changed to take
this into account which bypassed the timer cleanup on disconnections
resulting in a crash when the timer fired after IWD was disconnected:

To fix this we need to add checks for the cqm_poll_fallback flag in
netdev_rssi_polling_update().
