mwifiex: fix NULL pointer dereference in usb suspend handler
commit 346ece0b7ba2730b4d633b9e371fe55488803102 upstream. Bug 60815 - Interface hangs in mwifiex_usb https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60815 [ 2.883807] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000048 [ 2.883813] IP: [<ffffffff815a65e0>] pfifo_fast_enqueue+0x90/0x90 [ 2.883834] CPU: 1 PID: 3220 Comm: kworker/u8:90 Not tainted 3.11.1-monotone-l0 #6 [ 2.883834] Hardware name: Microsoft Corporation Surface with Windows 8 Pro/Surface with Windows 8 Pro, BIOS 1.03.0450 03/29/2013 On Surface Pro, suspend to ram gives a NULL pointer dereference in pfifo_fast_enqueue(). The stack trace reveals that the offending call is clearing carrier in mwifiex_usb suspend handler. Since commit 1499d9f "mwifiex: don't drop carrier flag over suspend" has removed the carrier flag handling over suspend/resume in SDIO and PCIe drivers, I'm removing it in USB driver too. This also fixes the bug for Surface Pro. Tested-by: Dmitry Khromov <icechrome@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Bing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
