wl1251: fix crash on remove due to leftover work item
This driver currently leaves elp_work behind when stopping, which occasionally results in data corruption because work function ends up accessing freed memory, typical symptoms of this are various worker_thread crashes. Fix it by cancelling elp_work. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v2.6.37+ Signed-off-by: Grazvydas Ignotas <notasas@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
