This is with a somewhat hacked-upon 3.7.5+ kernel. The extra wifi stuff is
mostly back-ported patches from newer upstream kernels.
Warning is from the code below...guess I'll add some more debug printing
here to try to get more useful info on exactly what failed... I am
NOT using WDS as far as I know...
/*
* Remove all stations associated with this interface.
*
* This must be done before calling ops->remove_interface()
* because otherwise we can later invoke ops->sta_notify()
* whenever the STAs are removed, and that invalidates driver
* assumptions about always getting a vif pointer that is valid
* (because if we remove a STA after ops->remove_interface()
* the driver will have removed the vif info already!)
*
* This is relevant only in WDS mode, in all other modes we've
* already removed all stations when disconnecting or similar,
* so warn otherwise.
*
* We call sta_info_flush_cleanup() later, to combine RCU waits.
*/

(sdata->vif.type == NL80211_IFTYPE_WDS && flushed != 1));
