Modified files: sys/dev/pci : if_iwm.c Log message: Prevent a possible "MAC context already removed" panic in iwm_auth(). This panic happens if iwm_newstate_task() sleeps and wakes up after iwm_stop(). The error path of iwm_newstate_task() attempts to reset driver flags and firmware state, which should not be done if iwm_stop() has already done so. A more comprehensive fix for such races is being worked on but not ready yet. For now, check the generation counter in the error path of iwm_auth() and only clean up state if that counter hasn't changed. Problem reported and workaround tested by giovanni@
