Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] mac80211:  Stop timers before canceling work items.
Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2013 09:41:08 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1361382069-31729-1-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com> (raw)

From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>

Re-order the quiesce code so that timers are
always stopped before work-items are flushed.  This was
not the problem I saw, but I think it may still be more
correct.
