The bug was triggered when do suspend/resuming continuously on Dell XPS L322X/0PJHXN version 9333 (2013) with kernel 4.12.0-041200rc4-generic. But can't reproduce on DELL E5440 + AR9300 PCIE chips. The warning is caused by accessing invalid pointer sc->rng_task. sc->rng_task is not be cleared after kthread_stop(sc->rng_task) be called in ath9k_rng_stop(). Because the kthread is stopped before ath9k_rng_kthread() be scheduled. So set sc->rng_task to null after kthread_stop(sc->rng_task) to resolve this issue.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
