Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.6 045/139] wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: avoid NULL pointer dereference

From: Miri Korenblit <miriam.rachel.korenblit@...el.com>

[ Upstream commit 557a6cd847645e667f3b362560bd7e7c09aac284 ]

iwl_mvm_tx_skb_sta() and iwl_mvm_tx_mpdu() verify that the mvmvsta
pointer is not NULL.
It retrieves this pointer using iwl_mvm_sta_from_mac80211, which is
dereferencing the ieee80211_sta pointer.
If sta is NULL, iwl_mvm_sta_from_mac80211 will dereference a NULL
pointer.
Fix this by checking the sta pointer before retrieving the mvmsta
from it. If sta is not NULL, then mvmsta isn't either.
