From f5e8560ee0f10e7daf4bc16caf7c50bb30fced9c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amitkumar Karwar Date: Tue, 25 Mar 2014 19:01:18 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mwifiex: corner case NULL pointer dereference fix When next scan command is delayed due to Tx traffic and meanwhile synchronous command is received followed by a signal, we cance all pending commands. NULL pointer dereference is seen in this case while queueing next command in scan delay timer. This patch adds a check to fix this issue.
