    wifi: mwifiex: Do not return unused priv in mwifiex_get_priv_by_id() · c145eea2
    Sascha Hauer authored
    mwifiex_get_priv_by_id() returns the priv pointer corresponding to
    the bss_num and bss_type, but without checking if the priv is actually
    currently in use.
    Unused priv pointers do not have a wiphy attached to them which can
    lead to NULL pointer dereferences further down the callstack.  Fix
    this by returning only used priv pointers which have priv->bss_mode
    set to something else than NL80211_IFTYPE_UNSPECIFIED.
    
    Said NULL pointer dereference happened when an Accesspoint was started
    with wpa_supplicant -i mlan0 with this config:
    
    network={
            ssid="somessid"
            mode=2
            frequency=2412
            key_mgmt=WPA-PSK WPA-PSK-SHA256
            proto=RSN
            group=CCMP
            pairwise=CCMP
            psk="12345678"
    }
    
    When waiting for the AP to be established, interrupting wpa_supplicant
    with <ctrl-c> and starting it again this happens:
