[PATCH] wifi: mt76: mt7996: stop radios after add failure
From: Jiale Yao
Date: Sun Oct 18 2026 - 21:32:30 EST
A multi-radio interface can start one radio before starting a later
radio fails. add_interface returns without stopping the radios started
by that failed request. mt7996_run can also leave firmware radio state
enabled when setup fails after radio enablement.
Disable a radio when mt7996_run fails and track radios newly started by
add_interface so they and their monitor state are rolled back on a later
failure.
Fixes: 69d54ce7491d ("wifi: mt76: mt7996: switch to single multi-radio wiphy")
