** Description changed: + SRU justification: + + Impact: Oops in cf80211 when specifying ieee80211_regdom=EU. A pointer + is used before valid, leading to NULL pointer dereference. + + Fix: Backport of relevant changes from recent compat-wireless packages. + + Testcase: see below + + --- + After the latest linux-backports-modules update (2.6.28-8.8), I now get an oops from cfg80211 when specifying the ieee80211_regdom=EU parameter. Note, that before updating to the master=2009-03-03 based -8.8, I was using a personal build updated to master-2008-02-18. I'm aware that bug 329975 is very similar, but I'm filing a separate one since that other issue was reported in l-b-m 2.6.28-7.5, whereas my issue definitely did not arise until after that version.
