[PATCH] cw1200: Fix OOPS in monitor mode

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

 



In monitor mode, priv->vif is NULL, but at one point in the receive path we
blindly attempt to dereference it.  Add a test to prevent this.

This patch really needs to go into 3.11-rc
