From bf9d5d28aabc6e420a0b6fb3a24b93046878e864 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Victor Goldenshtein Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2013 18:41:25 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] wlcore: fix unsafe dereference of the wlvif wlvif could be passed as NULL from the wlcore_tx_work_locked() to the wl1271_prepare_tx_frame() and to wl1271_skb_queue_head() functions. This may lead to a Kernel panic, fix this by validating that wlvif != NULL.
