Subject: iwlwifi: do not nulify ctx->vif on reset
X-Git-Tag: v3.4-rc6~23^2~8^2~15
X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8db4c7e25d153fb049e81715d72fa3be3a0c3b69;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git

iwlwifi: do not nulify ctx->vif on reset

ctx->vif is dereferenced in different part of iwlwifi code, so do not
nullify it.

This should address at least one of the possible reasons of WARNING at
iwlagn_mac_remove_interface, and perhaps some random crashes when
firmware reset is performed.
