Subject: [PATCH] nl80211: fix nl80211_send_iface() error paths
Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2017 12:34:26 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171211113426.32257-1-johannes@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
Evidently I introduced a locking bug in my change here,
the nla_put_failure sometimes needs to unlock. Fix it.
Fixes: 44905265bc15 ("nl80211: don't expose wdev->ssid for most interfaces")
