Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mt76: mt7921: fix kernel crash at mt7921_pci_remove
The crash log shown it is possible that mt7921_irq_handler is called while
devm_free_irq is being handled so mt76_free_device need to be postponed
until devm_free_irq is completed to solve the crash we free the mt76 device
too early.
