    mac80211: fix kernel panic in IBSS due to a regression · e46a2cf9
    Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan authored
    kernel panic occurs when we create an IBSS mode and leave it for
    sometime without any joiner and this is introduced by the
    commit ec2b774e
    
     where we don't
    put proper braces for 'list_for_each_entry_safe' and we pass an
    invalid 'sta' pointer to __sta_info_destroy
    
    EIP is at __list_add+0xe/0xa0
