[PATCH v2.6.36-rc7] mac80211: cancel restart_work explicitly insteadof depending on flush_scheduled_work()

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Fri Oct 15 2010 - 11:35:39 EST


iee80211_hw->restart_work is the only work which uses the system
workqueue. Instead of calling flush_scheduled_work() during
iee80211_exit(), cancel the work during unregistration.

This is to prepare for the deprecation and removal of
flush_scheduled_work().
