[ Upstream commit 123c0aab0050cd0e07ce18e453389fbbb0a5a425 ]
There is a check on pmlmepriv before dereferencing it when vfree'ing pmlmepriv->free_bss_buf however the previous call to rtw_free_mlme_priv_ie_data deferences pmlmepriv causing a null pointer deference if it is null. Avoid this by also calling rtw_free_mlme_priv_ie_data if the pointer is non-null.
