[PATCH] staging: ks7010: avoid dereferencing packet if it is null

From: Colin King
Date: Wed Sep 07 2016 - 12:24:45 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Updating tx_bytes from packet->len if packet is null will cause
a null pointer dereference, so only update tx_bytes if it packet
is not null.
