[   78.253128] create link wlan0 ns=ffff88001ce1e600
...
[   93.462268] delete link wlan0 ns=ffff88001ce1e600

looks the same ...

Also note

[  109.872488] netconsole: network logging stopped, interface wlan0 unregistered
[  109.872910] PM: Removing info for No Bus:wlan0
[  109.872941] delete link wlan0 ns=ffff88001e9bd600
[  110.130563] PM: Removing info for No Bus:rfkill0
[  110.130599] delete link rfkill0 ns=ffff88001b61ea80
[  110.131135] PM: Removing info for No Bus:phy0
[  110.131161] delete link phy0 ns=ffff88001b61e240
[  110.131424] PM: Removing info for No Bus:hwsimdev0
[  110.131445] delete link hwsimdev0 ns=ffff88001b67ed80

(I changed the struct device thing in hwsim to be hwsimdev%d rather than
hwsim%d to tell the difference to hwsim0, the monitor netdev) so it's
getting removed from PM way after the wlan0 that links into it...
