From aa5f66d5a1df1c2b04bccdcb19711675c765d7c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 26 Sep 2013 20:03:45 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: fix sysfs registration race My locking rework/race fixes caused a regression in the registration, causing uevent notifications for wireless devices before the device is really fully registered and available in nl80211. Fix this by moving the device_add() under rtnl and move the rfkill to afterwards (it can't be under rtnl.)
