Hi John,

Please apply this to wireless-dev.

This fixes various bugs in the init and shutdown code
that would lead to lockups and crashes.
This is best reproducable by receiving a timeout from
the netdev watchdog.

Is a similar bug likely to be the cause of the netdev watchdog timeouts in 
bcm43xx-softmac? If so, will there be a patch for wireless-2.6?

I don't know why the _timeouts_ itself happen, but maybe the
lockup and crash bugs are in bcm43xx-softmac, too.
I think it should be actually trivial to port this to bcm43xx-softmac.
Care to do this, Larry?
