3.2.101-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Peter Huewe peterhuewe@gmx.de
commit fae7e4d39373305cf505d1f0871a4491897d56f9 upstream.
clang/scan-build complains that: p80211netdev.c:451:6: warning: Branch condition evaluates to a garbage value if ((p80211_wep.data) && (p80211_wep.data != skb->data)) ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This can happen in p80211knetdev_hard_start_xmit if - if (wlandev->state != WLAN_DEVICE_OPEN) evaluates to true. the execution flow then continues at the 'failed' label where p80211_wep.data is used without being initialized first.
-> Initialize the data field to NULL to fix this issue.
