Subject: [PATCH 2.6.32] cfg80211: fix netns error unwinding bug
Date: Thu, 08 Oct 2009 21:02:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1255028522.3713.31.camel@johannes.local> (raw)

The error unwinding code in set_netns has a bug
that will make it run into a BUG_ON if passed a
bad wiphy index, fix by not trying to unlock a
wiphy that doesn't exist.
