[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 10/91] libertas: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2019-12-10 22:44:56
Also in: linux-wireless, lkml, stable
Subsystem: marvell libertas wireless driver, the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

From: Allen Pais <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 7da413a18583baaf35dd4a8eb414fa410367d7f2 ]

alloc_workqueue is not checked for errors and as a result,
a potential NULL dereference could occur.
