mt76.ctx can be null, and that causes chandef to be null.
Use logic found in similar code paths to use chandef
from the phy object in case ctx is NULL.

With this, my system no longer crashes, but STA will still not
associate.

Hi Ben,

can you please add 'Fixes' tag to help people backporting the fix?
I think it is:
Fixes: c948b5da6bbe ("wifi: mt76: mt7925: add Mediatek Wi-Fi7 driver for mt7925 chips")

I'm not able to reproduce the crash on upstream drivers, the crash only happened when
I had a local patch that caused it to not associate.

I still think the patch should go upstream as there may be other paths to hit the bug,
but maybe it doesn't need to be backported?

Let me know if you still want me to do the Fixes thing.

Thanks,
Ben


Regards,
Lorenzo
