[PATCH] ar5523: Fix null-ptr-deref with unexpected WDCMSG_TARGET_START reply

From: Zekun Shen
Date: Thu Oct 28 2021 - 18:37:55 EST


Unexpected WDCMSG_TARGET_START replay can lead to null-ptr-deref
when ar->tx_cmd->odata is NULL. The patch adds a null check to
prevent such case.

KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000007]
