Subject: [PATCH 3.10 10/26] mac80211: clear subdir_stations when removing debugfs
Date: Sat,  8 Aug 2015 15:07:26 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150808220718.647099058@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150808220718.230934936@linuxfoundation.org>

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tom Hughes <tom@compton.nu>

commit 4479004e6409087d1b4986881dc98c6c15dffb28 upstream.

If we don't do this, and we then fail to recreate the debugfs
directory during a mode change, then we will fail later trying
to add stations to this now bogus directory:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000006c
IP: [<c0a92202>] mutex_lock+0x12/0x30
