Subject: [PATCH v2] wifi: mac80211: clear vif drv_priv after remove_interface when stopping
Date: Thu, 4 Jul 2024 15:09:47 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240704130947.48609-1-nbd@nbd.name> (raw)
Avoid reusing stale driver data when an interface is brought down and up
again. In order to avoid having to duplicate the memset in every single
driver, do it here.
