Subject: batman-adv: document cleanup of batadv_wifi_net_devices entries
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bb9e48e32d31d3cf12176da81334f345792ac96b;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

batman-adv: document cleanup of batadv_wifi_net_devices entries

It doesn't seem to be obvious how the entries from the
batadv_wifi_net_devices rhashtable are getting removed before the actual
rhashtable is destroyed. Document the idea behind the process and which
steps are involved.
