Subject: [PATCH net-next] net/xen-netfront: only clean up queues if present
Date: Wed, 19 Aug 2015 19:14:20 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1440026060.2546.9.camel@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Chas Williams <3chas3@gmail.com>
If you simply load and unload the module without starting the interfaces,
the queues are never created and you get a bad pointer dereference.
