Subject: [PATCH wireless-next v2 26/28] wifi: mac80211: Ensure link work-items are only initialized once.
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2026 10:00:24 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260312170026.285494-27-greearb@candelatech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260312170026.285494-1-greearb@candelatech.com>
From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>
Re-initialization could cause corruption in work queues in case
links were not properly stopped for some reason.
Signed-off-by: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>
