However, it's possible for a netdev to\nbe unregistered without going through that: When the netns that\nholds the wiphy is destroyed, the wiphy is supposed to move to\nthe init_ns, but that can run into allocation failures.\n\nThen, mac80211 has an interface listed that doesn't exist, and\nwill eventually hit\n\n  BUG: failure at net/wireless/core.h:141/wiphy_to_rdev()!\n  ...\n  _cfg80211_unregister_wdev+0x24/0x36a [cfg80211]\n  cfg80211_unregister_wdev+0x15/0x1d [cfg80211]\n  ieee80211_remove_interfaces+0x1ff/0x257 [mac80211]\n  ieee80211_unregister_hw+0x73/0x1d1 [mac80211]\n  mac80211_hwsim_del_radio+0x114/0x166 [mac80211_hwsim]\n\nRemove the interface from the list in ->ndo_uninit if it's still\naround to avoid this.",
