[PATCH] staging: rtl8712: Fix a possible NULL pointer dereference in function r8712_joinbss_event_callback

From: Lee Gibson
Date: Fri Mar 19 2021 - 04:59:46 EST


GCC 10 analyzer reports a warning: dereference of NULL
The function r8712_find_network can return NULL and is usually checked but
no check is present is this case.
Fix by adding the check.
