Do you mean

        if (!ifidx) {
               ifidx = nl80211_get_ifidx(cb);
               if (ifidx < 0)
                  return ifidx;
               cb->args[0] = ifidx;
        }
        if (ifidx < 0)
              return ifidx;

instead?



I'm not familiar with this function, but maybe we
can get away like this:

        int ifidx = cb->args[0];

        if (!ifidx)
               ifidx = nl80211_get_ifidx(cb);
        if (ifidx < 0)
              return ifidx;
        cb->args[0] = ifidx;
