Johannes Berg 862b19f0b1 wifi: cfg80211: make hash table duplicates more survivable
[ Upstream commit 7f12e26a194d0043441f870708093d9c2c3bad7d ]

Jiazi Li reported that they occasionally see hash table duplicates
as evidenced by the WARN_ON() in rb_insert_bss() in this code.  It
isn't clear how that happens, nor have I been able to reproduce it,
but if it does happen, the kernel crashes later, when it tries to
unhash the entry that's now not hashed.

Try to make this situation more survivable by removing the BSS from
the list(s) as well, that way it's fully leaked here (as had been
the intent in the hash insert error path), and no longer reachable
through the list(s) so it shouldn't be unhashed again later.

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 Restructured Text 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.
