Subject: [PATCH iwlwifi-next] wifi: iwlwifi: mld: Fix iteration of uninitialized async handler list.
Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2025 14:06:27 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250430210627.3674314-1-rory@candelatech.com> (raw)
There were a few cases where iteration of the async_handlers_list would
be attempted before the list was initialized by async_handlers_wk. This
patch initializes that list during mld construction to guard against
that case.
This fixes a panic seen on boot:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
