This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ath11k: Avoid NULL ptr access during mgmt tx cleanup to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ath11k-avoid-null-ptr-access-during-mgmt-tx-cleanup.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 5f86583d93518cc33b3c85b6a626e0692c8e0cdc Author: Sriram R <quic_srirrama@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Nov 25 15:00:14 2021 +0530 ath11k: Avoid NULL ptr access during mgmt tx cleanup [ Upstream commit a93789ae541c7d5c1c2a4942013adb6bcc5e2848 ] Currently 'ar' reference is not added in skb_cb during WMI mgmt tx. Though this is generally not used during tx completion callbacks, on interface removal the remaining idr cleanup callback uses the ar ptr from skb_cb from mgmt txmgmt_idr. Hence fill them during tx call for proper usage. Also free the skb which is missing currently in these callbacks.
