[PATCH 0/7] brcmfmac: rework probe/attach sequence

[PATCH 0/7] brcmfmac: rework probe/attach sequence

[Arend van Spriel]

The brcmfmac driver spews some error message upon unloading and Stefan
Wahren was wondering whether it could be cleaned up. Related to this
was a recent fix for NULL pointer deref. That fix introduced a construct
that added to the itch to rework the probe sequence. So this series
reverts commit 5cdb0ef6144f ("brcmfmac: fix NULL pointer derefence during
USB disconnect").

The changes in this series are:
 * reorder brcmf_detach() code.
 * avoid firmware interaction when bus is down.
 * remove strlcpy() before issueing firmware version iovar.

This series applies to the master branch of the wireless-drivers-next
repository.

Arend van Spriel (7):
  Revert "brcmfmac: fix NULL pointer derefence during USB disconnect"
  brcmfmac: change the order of things in brcmf_detach()
  brcmfmac: avoid firmware command in brcmf_netdev_open() when bus is
    down
  brcmfmac: clear events in brcmf_fweh_detach() will always fail
  brcmfmac: avoid firmware commands when bus is down
  brcmfmac: simply remove flowring if bus is down
  brcmfmac: remove unnecessary strlcpy() upon obtaining "ver" iovar

[PATCH 1/7] Revert "brcmfmac: fix NULL pointer derefence during USB disconnect"

[Arend van Spriel]

This reverts commit 5cdb0ef6144f47440850553579aa923c20a63f23. Subsequent
changes make rework the driver code fixing the issue differently.

[PATCH 2/7] brcmfmac: change the order of things in brcmf_detach()

[Arend van Spriel]

When brcmf_detach() from the bus layer upon rmmod we can no longer
communicate. Hence we will set the bus state to DOWN and cleanup
the event and protocol layer. The network interfaces need to be
deleted before brcmf_cfg80211_detach() because the latter does the
wiphy_unregister() which issues a warning if there are still network
devices linked to the wiphy instance.

Clearing firmware events in brcmf_fweh_detach() is always failing

[PATCH 7/7] brcmfmac: remove unnecessary strlcpy() upon obtaining "ver" iovar

[Arend van Spriel]

was not needed in the first place. So removing that line of code.

This fixes a rmmod crash in brcmf_txfinalize() that I reported in the:
