Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] It fixes SEGV in station_roam_scan_notify when performing repeated roam scans at legacy roaming after a failed FT-handover due to a ft_auth-/ft_reassoc-timeout. The issue occurs with all WLAN drivers. We have seen the issue with SIEMENS SCALANCE W700 AX APs, but it may also occur with other AP brands supporting FT-handover.

The issue only arises when using mwifiex / NXP 88W9098 driver for the client's WLAN module.
