From f6837ba8c98afcf28ec25f6863a8597274aeefd6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2014 14:19:04 +0200 Subject: mac80211: handle failed restart/resume better When the driver fails during HW restart or resume, the whole stack goes into a very confused state with interfaces being up while the hardware is down etc. Address this by shutting down everything; we'll run into a lot of warnings in the process but that's better than having the whole stack get messed up.
