[PATCH 5.13 489/800] mt76: fix possible NULL pointer dereference in mt76_tx

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-07-12 08:42:57
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: mediatek mt76 wireless lan driver, the rest · Maintainers: Felix Fietkau, Lorenzo Bianconi, Ryder Lee, Linus Torvalds

From: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit d7400a2f3e295b8cee692c7a66e10f60015a3c37 ]

Even if this is not a real issue since mt76_tx is never run with wcid set
to NULL, fix a theoretical NULL pointer dereference in mt76_tx routine

Fixes: db9f11d3433f7 ("mt76: store wcid tx rate info in one u32 reduce locking")
