+Subject: [PATCH 1/3] mac80211: fix a kernel panic when TXing after TXQ
+ teardown
+
+Recently TXQ teardown was moved earlier in ieee80211_unregister_hw(),
+to avoid a use-after-free of the netdev data. However, interfaces
+aren't fully removed at the point, and cfg80211_shutdown_all_interfaces
+can for example, TX a deauth frame. Move the TXQ teardown to the
+point between cfg80211_shutdown_all_interfaces and the free of
+netdev queues, so we can be sure they are torn down before netdev
+is freed, but after there is no ongoing TX.
+
+Fixes: 77cfaf52eca5 ("mac80211: Run TXQ teardown code before de-registering interfaces")
