Subject: [PATCH] libertas: clear current command on card removal
Date: Mon, 08 Sep 2008 16:34:40 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1220906080.1618.20.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

If certain commands were in-flight when the card was pulled or the
driver rmmod-ed, cleanup would block on the work queue stopping, but the
work queue was in turn blocked on the current command being canceled,
which didn't happen.  Fix that.
