[PATCH 1/3] staging: r8188eu: fix null check in rtw_free_recvframe

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There's a NULL check on padapter in rtw_recv.c:170 which makes no sense as
rtw_recv.c:152 dereferences it unconditionally and it would have already
crashed at this point.
Fix this by moving the dereference line inside the check.
