What git hash are you on? Is that the line:
memcpy(&psurveyPara->ch[i], &ch[i], sizeof(struct ieee80211_channel));
Are you sure that's the line which crashes? According to Smatch and my
simple grep that's dead code because "ch" is always NULL.

I feel a bit bad for not spotting this in review because I was looking
for that kind of bug. I still don't immediately spot where the bug is.
