Subject: [PATCH 3/5] iwlwifi: mvm: fix potential NULL-dereference in iwl_mvm_reorder()
Date: Fri, 10 Jun 2016 15:39:55 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1465562397-1402-3-git-send-email-luca@coelho.fi> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1465562397-1402-1-git-send-email-luca@coelho.fi>

From: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com>

We try to access sta before we check for IS_ERR_OR_NULL(), so we may
end up accessing a NULL pointer.  To prevent that, move the conversion
from sta to mvm_sta below the check.

Fixes: b915c10174fb ("iwlwifi: mvm: add reorder buffer per queue")
