From 5e6588b9d4ab0f97ff7ea58195f4c6fd6380bd91 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brian Norris Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2017 18:13:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mwifiex: fix misnomers in mwifiex_free_lock_list() Despite the name (and meticulous comments), this function frees no memory and does not touch any locks. All it does is "delete" the list heads -- which just means they'll be dangling, and we'll need to re-init them if we use them again. It seems like this code would work OK as a sort of canary for using the list after we've torn everything down, so it's fine to keep the code; let's just get the name and comments to match what's actually happening.
