Subject: [PATCH 3.11 30/36] rt2x00: fix a crash bug in the HT descriptor handling fix
Date: Tue, 26 Nov 2013 10:12:40 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131126181031.391985125@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20131126181025.029404973@linuxfoundation.org>
3.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org>
commit b4089d6d8e71a7293e2192025dfa507a04f661c4 upstream.
Commit "rt2x00: fix HT TX descriptor settings regression"
assumes that the control parameter to rt2x00mac_tx is always non-NULL.
There is an internal call in rt2x00lib_bc_buffer_iter where NULL is
passed. Fix the resulting crash by adding an initialized dummy on-stack
ieee80211_tx_control struct.
