[PATCH] wireless: marvell: mwl8k: Fix a double Free in mwl8k_probe_hw

From: Lv Yunlong <hidden>
Date: 2021-04-02 18:26:43
Also in: lkml, netdev
Subsystem: marvell mwl8k wireless driver, the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

In mwl8k_probe_hw, hw->priv->txq is freed at the first time by
dma_free_coherent() in the call chain:
if(!priv->ap_fw)->mwl8k_init_txqs(hw)->mwl8k_txq_init(hw, i).

Then in err_free_queues of mwl8k_probe_hw, hw->priv->txq is freed
at the second time by mwl8k_txq_deinit(hw, i)->dma_free_coherent().

My patch set txq->txd to NULL after the first free to avoid the
double free.
