[PATCH 1/3] hp-wmi: fix rfkill memory leak on unload

[Corentin Chary]

rfkill_unregister() should always be followed by rfkill_destroy()
In this case, rfkill_destroy was called two times on wifi_rfkill and
never on bluetooth_rfkill.

I can endorse this as I already submitted something similar :-). 
<http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/42699/> (with a disclaimer that it
was not tested on dell hardware).

I haven't seen your patch, sorry :/

It also conflicts with http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/42705/ (I set 
wlan_rfkill to NULL to avoid use-after-free).

Let's drop this patch and merge your series

These are also likely needed in 2.6.31, please add appropriate Cc: lines to
stable@kernel.org while adding the Acked-By's.

Do they meet the -stable criteria?

...
 - It must fix a real bug that bothers people (not a, "This could be a
   problem..." type thing).
 - It must fix a problem that causes a build error (but not for things
   marked CONFIG_BROKEN), an oops, a hang, data corruption, a real
   security issue, or some "oh, that's not good" issue.  In short, something
   critical.
... (Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt)

But looking at it, it seems to meet the -stable criteria as well.  However,
it looks like you're fixing two bugs there (set pointers to NULL, call
_destroy()), so it would be better to have two (smaller) patches, maybe?

The dell-laptop patch is superseded by:
http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/42705/
http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/42699/

I didn't check patchwork before working on this patch :/
