wifi: wilc1000: unregister wiphy only if it has been registered
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
There is a specific error path in probe functions in wilc drivers (both
sdio and spi) which can lead to kernel panic, as this one for example
when using SPI:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 9f000000 when read
[9f000000] *pgd=00000000

The issue can easily be reproduced, for example by not wiring correctly
a wilc device through SPI (and so, make it unresponsive to early SPI
commands). It is due to a recent change decoupling wiphy allocation from
wiphy registration, however wilc_netdev_cleanup has not been updated
accordingly, letting it possibly call wiphy unregister on a wiphy which
has never been registered.

Fix this crash by moving wiphy_unregister/wiphy_free out of
wilc_netdev_cleanup, and by adjusting error paths in both drivers
