#1281689 — [PATCH] brcmfmac: only lock and unlock fws if fws is not null

FromColin King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Subject[PATCH] brcmfmac: only lock and unlock fws if fws is not null
Message-ID<qBe53-6Dh-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

There is a null ptr check for fws to set bcmc_credit_check, however,
there a lock and unlock on fws should only performed if fwts is
also not null to also avoid a potential null pointer deference.
