From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The pointer rtwsta is dereferencing pointer sta before sta is
being null checked, so there is a potential null pointer deference
issue that may occur. Fix this by only assigning rtwsta after sta
has been null checked. Add in a null pointer check on rtwsta before
dereferencing it too.
Fixes: e3ec7017f6a2 ("rtw89: add Realtek 802.11ax driver")
Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check")
