   mac80211: make master iface not wireless


The actual crash is in the following routine from include/net/wireless.h:

/**
 * wiphy_priv - return priv from wiphy
 */
static inline void *wiphy_priv(struct wiphy *wiphy)
{
       BUG_ON(!wiphy);
       return &wiphy->priv;
}

I'm still looking to see where it goes wrong.

Actually wouldn't you get a stack trace here?
