When cleaning up beacon buffers and slots, ath9k currently checks if sc->ah->opmode is set to a beacon related mode before cleaning up buffers. An unfortunate ordering of interface up/down commands can lead to sc->ah->opmode being set to monitor mode, while there are AP interfaces present on the same wiphy. Always cleaning up beacon buffers if present fixes this issue. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <redacted> ---
