[PATCH 4.2 011/110] iwlwifi: mvm: flush fw_dump_wk when mvm fails to start

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Nov 06 2015 - 15:54:36 EST


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

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

From: Andrei Otcheretianski <andrei.otcheretianski@xxxxxxxxx>

commit dbf73d4a8bb8f4e1d1f3edd3be825692279e2ef3 upstream.

FW dump may be triggered when running init ucode, for example due to a
sysassert. In this case fw_dump_wk may run after mvm is freed, resulting
in a kernel panic.
Fix it by flushing the work.
