From 96e31adf8d73f10bd2b616a17bd8af0d53e9da33 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rasesh Mody Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2013 17:07:38 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] bna: Add NULL Check Before Dereferencing TCB Currently we already check to see whether the BNAD_TXQ_TX_STARTED cleared. But if the tcb structure which contains this flag is also already freed by that time, we would dereference the NULL pointer. This patch is to check tcb for NULL pointer, before dereferencing it.
