[75/80] tick-broadcast: Stop active broadcast device when replacing it

From: Greg KH
Date: Wed Dec 07 2011 - 11:19:33 EST


3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c1be84309c58b1e7c6d626e28fba41a22b364c3d upstream.

When a better rated broadcast device is installed, then the current
active device is not disabled, which results in two running broadcast
devices.
