From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Currently if the allocation of skb fails and returns NULL then the
call to skb_put will cause a null pointer dereference. Fix this by
checking for a null skb and returning NULL. Note that calls to
function mt76x2_mcu_msg_alloc don't directly check the null return
but instead pass the NULL pointer to mt76x2_mcu_msg_send which
checks for the NULL and returns ENOMEM in this case.
Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1462624 ("Dereference null return value")
Fixes: 7bc04215a66b ("mt76: add driver code for MT76x2e")
