Subject: [PATCH] libertas: allow removal of card at any time
Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 10:51:15 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200804301051.15420.hs4233@mail.mn-solutions.de> (raw)
This fixes several problems I had:
* when removing the card while the card was scanning or associtating,
it could happen that destroy_workqueue() stuck and didn't return.
* make sure the command function doesn't run while we remove the list
of pending commands
* for still unknown reason, I had calls to lbs_stop_card() with
priv==NULL
