From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> There's no need to check for NULL before calling dev_kfree_skb() since it is valid to call it on NULL -- it becomes a no-op. There's also no need to initialise the beacon_skb variable to NULL just after the memory it is in has been kzalloc'ed. Some minor whitespace cleanups, and a lock assertion in a function that needs the mutex (to access the beacon_skb var) complete the patch.
