Subject[PATCH 4.16 112/272] mt76x2: fix possible NULL pointer dereferencing in mt76x2_tx()
Date
4.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianconi@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 6958b027435aa54d82bbef09a007fd287f439977 ]

Fix a theoretical NULL pointer dereferencing in mt76x2_tx routine that
can occurs for injected frames in a monitor vif since vif pointer could
be NULL for that interfaces
