Subject: [PATCH] Staging: rtlwifi: Remove NULL pointer dereference
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2017 02:48:58 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1507583938-13272-1-git-send-email-shreeya.patel23498@gmail.com> (raw)
Remove NULL pointer dereference as it results in undefined
behaviour, and will usually lead to a runtime error.
