Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix double list_add at iwl_mvm_mac_wake_tx_queue<br />
<br />
After successfull station association, if station queues are disabled for<br />
some reason, the related lists are not emptied. So if some new element is<br />
added to the list in iwl_mvm_mac_wake_tx_queue, it can match with the old<br />
one and produce a BUG like this:<br />
<br />
[ 46.535263] list_add corruption. prev->next should be next (ffff94c1c318a360), but was 0000000000000000. (prev=ffff94c1d02d3388).<br />

In order to avoid this problem, we must also remove the related lists when<br />
station queues are disabled.
