Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.1 06/17] wifi: avoid offset calculation on NULL pointer

From: Michael-CY Lee <michael-cy.lee@...iatek.com>

[ Upstream commit ef5828805842204dd0259ecfc132b5916c8a77ae ]

ieee80211_he_6ghz_oper() can be passed a NULL pointer
and checks for that, but already did the calculation
to inside of it before. Move it after the check.
