b43: Don't abuse wl->current_dev in the led work
Don't abuse wl->current_dev in the LED work for checking whether we're going down. Add an explicit variable. This fixes a crash on rmmod dereferencing the wl->current_dev NULL pointer in various other places of the driver. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
