Subject: [PATCH][next] ath10k: fix null dereference on pointer crash_data

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

Currently when pointer crash_data is null the present null check
will also check that crash_data->ramdump_buf is null and will cause
a null pointer dereference on crash_data. Fix this by using the ||
operator instead of &&.
