Yes, padapter was deference without checking it could be NULL on rtw_resume.

I think having NULL check would be safe. However if padapter is NULL 
then on goto exit "if (pwrpriv)" condition  will never true as pwrpriv 
is initialized with NULL. There should be one more goto exit just to 
return.!

let me know you thought greg,
