Subject: brcmfmac: Fix crash on cleanup.
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=58b2251e96d8230e81f65a0196afc914a17e1806;p=linux-beck.git

brcmfmac: Fix crash on cleanup.

When driver gets unloaded due to error situation there is a chance
a packet gets received while fws has already been cleaned up. This
will result in kernel crash. This patch adds a check to avoid this
crash.
