Subject: [PATCH] wil6210: fix call to wil6210_disconnect during unload
Git-commit: 9861bf3b818fbe810442b89230b80c0385ef9e04
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc1
References: FATE#326906
Move the call to wil6210_disconnect so it will be called
before unregister_netdevice. This is because it calls
netif_carrier_off which is forbidden to call on an
unregistered net device. Calling netif_carrier_off can
add a link watch event which might be handled after
net device was freed, causing a kernel oops.
