From: Lorenzo Bianconi Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2023 00:10:25 +0100 Subject: wifi: mt76: do not run mt76_unregister_device() on unregistered hw Origin: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/be3457d82f4e44bb71a22b2b5db27b644a37b1e1.1677107277.git.lorenzo@kernel.org/ Bug-Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/1029116 Trying to probe a mt7921e pci card without firmware results in a successful probe where ieee80211_register_hw hasn't been called. When removing the driver, ieee802111_unregister_hw is called unconditionally leading to a kernel NULL pointer dereference. Fix the issue running mt76_unregister_device routine just for registered hw.
