Hi Dave,

This morning I randomly ran into a kernel crash and then I looked into
it and came up with this fix. It's clearly been around for quite a while
without anyone having seen it before (to my knowledge), so if you think
you don't want to pull it into net.git at this point that should be
fine.

Let me know what you want to do with it, I can also put it into
mac80211-next instead (although then Greg complains that he gets a lot
of Cc stable patches in rc1, but all the processes need time ...).

Thanks,
johannes

  mac80211: fix RX A-MPDU session reorder timer deletion (2015-04-01 14:35:01 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
This contains just a single fix for a crash I happened to randomly
run into today during testing. It's clearly been around for a while,
but is pretty hard to trigger, even when I tried explicitly (and
modified the code to make it more likely) it rarely did.
