[patch 08/14] libertas: clear current command on card removal

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Oct 16 2008 - 14:03:10 EST


2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------
From: Dan Williams <dcbw@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 71b35f3abeb8f7f7e0afd7573424540cc5aae2d5 upstream

If certain commands were in-flight when the card was pulled or the
driver rmmod-ed, cleanup would block on the work queue stopping, but the
work queue was in turn blocked on the current command being canceled,
which didn't happen. Fix that.
