Subject: cfg80211: free sme on connection failures
X-Git-Tag: v3.12.22~119
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7f506377f05d1d087806e42949db49ef52aa397b;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-stable.git

cfg80211: free sme on connection failures

commit c1fbb258846dfc425507a093922d2d001e54c3ea upstream.

cfg80211 is notified about connection failures by
__cfg80211_connect_result() call. However, this
function currently does not free cfg80211 sme.

This results in hanging connection attempts in some cases

e.g. when mac80211 authentication attempt is denied,
we have this function call:
ieee80211_rx_mgmt_auth() -> cfg80211_rx_mlme_mgmt() ->
cfg80211_process_auth() -> cfg80211_sme_rx_auth() ->
__cfg80211_connect_result()

but cfg80211_sme_free() is never get called.
