wifi: mt76: mt7921e: fix rmmod crash in driver reload test
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7921e: fix rmmod crash in driver reload test In insmod/rmmod stress test, the following crash dump shows up immediately. The problem is caused by missing mt76_dev in mt7921_pci_remove(). We should make sure the drvdata is ready before probe() finished.
