[PATCH] staging: wlan-ng: Fix potential double free in skb_ether_to_p80211

[Mikhail Arkhipov]

Fix a potential double free of the p80211_wep->data pointer in the
skb_ether_to_p80211 function. When encryption fails, the function frees
p80211_wep->data but does not set the pointer to NULL, leading to the
possibility of double freeing the memory if the caller attempts to
free it again (calling function in p80211netdev.c (line 385) attempts
to free this memory again using kfree_sensitive at line 432)

Set p80211_wep->data to NULL after freeing it to ensure that further
attempts to free this pointer are safely handled, preventing a
double free error.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
