Re: [PATCH v4 6/6] ath10k: Add QMI message handshake for wcn3990 client

Add WCN3990 QMI client handshakes for Q6 integrated WLAN connectivity
subsystem. This layer is responsible for communicating qmi control
messages to wifi fw QMI service using QMI messaging protocol.

Qualcomm MSM Interface(QMI) is a messaging format used to communicate
between components running between remote processors with underlying
transport layer based on integrated chipset(shared memory) or
discrete chipset(PCI/USB/SDIO/UART).

I believe this is incorrect ordering. You should not be destroying the
work queue that handles QMI event responses before you release the QMI
handle. As it stands, this means you segfault during 'rmmod'.

+	qmi_handle_release(&qmi->qmi_hdl);

I think this should be:

	qmi_handle_release(&qmi->qmi_hdl);
	cancel_work_sync(&qmi->event_work);
	destroy_workqueue(qmi->event_wq);

+	qmi = NULL;

This assignment is pointless, as 'qmi' is a local variable. Maybe you
meant to clear the struct member, as a precaution? So this would be:

	ar_snoc->qmi = NULL;
