From 4885c8731a34eecf509822e089ce17bcd9bd4650 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russell King - ARM Linux Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2014 22:38:17 +0000 Subject: hostap: fix "hostap: proc: Use remove_proc_subtree()" remove_proc_subtree() doesn't work here as local->ddev has already been removed, and NULLed out. Use proc_remove() instead. Signed-off-by: Russell King Tested-by: Russell King Signed-off-by: John W.

If the timer handler is beeing executed at the moment, the function does nothing. So, it's possible to use already freed memory in the handler: [ref: Documentation/DocBook/kernel-locking.tmpl] This was found using grep and compile-tested only.
