From 640c65eae673d2caf6e7bf61c1eb4e9513b88fda Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jouni Malinen Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2009 21:47:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] zd1211rw: Do not panic on device eject when associated zd_op_tx() must not return an arbitrary error value since that can leave mac80211 trying to retransmit the frame and with the extra data pushed into the beginning of the skb on every attempt, this will end up causing a kernel panic (skb_under_panic from skb_push call). This can happen, e.g., when ejecting the device when associated. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen Signed-off-by: John W.
