[PATCH 3.2 141/153] s390/qeth: free netdevice when removing a card

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Wed May 30 2018 - 07:43:32 EST


3.2.102-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6be687395b3124f002a653c1a50b3260222b3cd7 upstream.

On removal, a qeth card's netdevice is currently not properly freed
because the call chain looks as follows:

qeth_core_remove_device(card)
lx_remove_device(card)
unregister_netdev(card->dev)
card->dev = NULL !!!
qeth_core_free_card(card)
if (card->dev) !!!
free_netdev(card->dev)

Fix it by free'ing the netdev straight after unregistering. This also
fixes the sysfs-driven layer switch case (qeth_dev_layer2_store()),
where the need to free the current netdevice was not considered at all.

Note that free_netdev() takes care of the netif_napi_del() for us too.
