From 7b647404fb694f250b62a2a363b1298243ea403b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gabor Juhos Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2009 11:14:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 11/11] ath9k: fix null pointer dereference in ani monitor code In 'ath9k_ani_reset' the 'ahp->ah_curani' will be initialized only if 'DO_ANI(ah)' true. In 'ath9k_hw_ani_monitor' we are using 'ahp->ah_curani' unconditionally, and it will cause a NULL pointer dereference on AR9100.
