b43: Fix lockdep splat on module unload
commit 63a02ce1c5c59baa40b99756492e3ec8d6b51483 upstream. On unload, b43 produces a lockdep warning that can be summarized in the following way: ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.8.0-wl+ #117 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------- modprobe/5557 is trying to acquire lock: ((&wl->firmware_load)){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81062160>] flush_work+0x0/0x2a0 but task is already holding lock: (rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff813bd7d2>] rtnl_lock+0x12/0x20 which lock already depends on the new lock. [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] ====================================================== The full output is available at http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1302.3/00060.html. To summarize, commit 6b6fa58 added a 'cancel_work_sync(&wl->firmware_load)' call in the wrong place. The fix is to move the cancel_work_sync() call to b43_bcma_remove() and b43_ssb_remove(). Thanks to Johannes Berg and Michael Buesch for help in diagnosing the log output. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
