Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: call cfg80211_stop_ap when switch from P2P_GO type
Git-commit: 563fbefed46ae4c1f70cffb8eb54c02df480b2c2
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc2
References: git-fixes

If the userspace tools switch from NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO to
NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC via send_msg(NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE), it
does not call the cleanup cfg80211_stop_ap(), this leads to the
initialization of in-use data. For example, this path re-init the
sdata->assigned_chanctx_list while it is still an element of
assigned_vifs list, and makes that linked list corrupt.
