I see the other patches,
I'm not sure if you just reduce the window or your patch is ok, I must
take a look
to the net part to undestand if it is correct.
The patch should be good. What it does is that it moves all the
low-level shutdown into ar6000_close which is called from
unregister_netdev. This means that it happens while the rtnl_lock
is held. The ioctl path also gets rtnl_lock, so the two can't
race anymore.
Ok when I look at the code in net I don't see the the lock is take
in wext.c before. But it is not a problem. Time spent to program
is never loose.
