Subject: [PATCH 4.14 31/45] ath10k: fix kernel panic issue during pci probe

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Yu Wang <yyuwang@...eaurora.org>

commit 50e79e25250bf928369996277e85b00536b380c7 upstream.

If device gone during chip reset, ar->normal_mode_fw.board is not
initialized, but ath10k_debug_print_hwfw_info() will try to access its
member, which will cause 'kernel NULL pointer' issue. This was found
using a faulty device (pci link went down sometimes) in a random
insmod/rmmod/other-op test.
To fix it, check ar->normal_mode_fw.board before accessing the member.
