Currently, the sequence goes like this (among others): 1. flush all stations (including the AP ones) -> this will tell the drivers to remove the stations 2. notify the driver the vif is not associated. Which means that in between 1 and 2, the state is that the vif is associated, but there is no AP station, which makes no sense, and may be problematic for some drivers (for example iwlwifi) Change the sequence to: 1. flush the TDLS stations 2. move the AP station to IEEE80211_STA_NONE 3. notify the driver about the vif being unassociated 4. flush the AP station In order to not break other drivers, add a vif flag to indicate whether the driver wants to new sequence or not. If the flag is not set, then things will be done in the old sequence.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
