rndis_wlan: fix initialization order for workqueue&workers
commit e805e4d0b53506dff4255a2792483f094e7fcd2c upstream. rndis_wext_link_change() might be called from rndis_command() at initialization stage and priv->workqueue/priv->work have not been initialized yet. This causes invalid opcode at rndis_wext_bind on some brands of bcm4320. Fix by initializing workqueue/workers in rndis_wext_bind() before rndis_command is used. This bug has existed since 2.6.25, reported at: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12794 Signed-off-by: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi> Signed-off-by: John W.
