[PATCH] ath10k: fix NULL dereference for injected packets

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

 



Tx processing functions dereference vif and caused
NULL to be dereferenced for injected frames.

Don't call these functions at all for injected
frames. It doesn't make much sense to do so
anyway.
