Subject: mac80211: validate skb->dev in the tx status path
X-Git-Tag: v3.7-rc1~145^2~31^2^2~67^2~4
X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1bad53824305807bb5cf49d6b588dd9d867586c6;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git

mac80211: validate skb->dev in the tx status path

skb->dev might contain a stale reference to a device that was already
deleted, and using it unchecked can lead to invalid pointer accesses.
Since this is only used for nl80211 tx, iterate over active interfaces
to find a match for skb->dev, and discard the tx status if the device
is gone.
