commit a1881c9b8a1edef0a5ae1d5c1b61406fe3402114 upstream.

Otherwise if network manager starts configuring Wi-Fi interface
immidiatelly after getting notification of its creation, we will get
NULL pointer dereference:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)
  IP: [<ffffffff95ae94c8>] hrtimer_active+0x28/0x50
  ...
  Call Trace:
