Subject: [PATCH 5.10 046/145] ibmvnic: fix: NULL pointer dereference.

From: YANG LI <abaci-bugfix@...ux.alibaba.com>

[ Upstream commit 862aecbd9569e563b979c0e23a908b43cda4b0b9 ]

The error is due to dereference a null pointer in function
reset_one_sub_crq_queue():

if (!scrq) {
    netdev_dbg(adapter->netdev,
               "Invalid scrq reset. irq (%d) or msgs(%p).\n",
		scrq->irq, scrq->msgs);
		return -EINVAL;
}

If the expression is true, scrq must be a null pointer and cannot
dereference.

Fixes: 9281cf2d5840 ("ibmvnic: avoid memset null scrq msgs")
