From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> In the unlikely event that cap->supported_bands has neither WMI_HOST_WLAN_2G_CAP set or WMI_HOST_WLAN_5G_CAP set then pointer band is null and a null dereference occurs when assigning band->n_iftype_data. Move the assignment to the if blocks to avoid this. Cleans up static analysis warnings.
