[PATCH] mac80211: fix issue with possible txq NULL pointer

From: Erik Stromdahl <hidden>
Date: 2018-09-14 16:00:48
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: mac80211, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

Drivers that do not have the BUFF_MMPDU_TXQ flag set will not have a
TXQ for the special TID = 16.

In this case, the last member in the *struct ieee80211_sta* txq array
will be NULL.

We must check this in order not to get a NULL pointer dereference when
iterating the txq array.
