From: Jiaxun Yang <jiaxun.yang@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit ee1809ed7bc456a72dc8410b475b73021a3a68d5 upstream. fw_getenv will use env entry to determine style of env, however it is legal for firmware to just pass a empty list. Check if first entry exist before running strchr to avoid null pointer dereference.
