Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: fix oops in iwl3945_led_brightness_set
fix race between:
ieee80211_open->ieee80211_led_radio->led_trigger_event->led_set_brightness->iwl3945_led_brightness_set
(which assumes that "led->priv" is not NULL)
and
iwl3945_pci_probe->iwl3945_setup_deferred_work->(...)->iwl3945_bg_alive_start->iwl3945_alive_start->iwl3945_led_register->iwl3945_led_register_led
which sets priv field in struct iwl3945_led
after
led->led_dev.brightness_set = iwl3945_led_brightness_set;
(...)
led_classdev_register(device, &led->led_dev);
