[ Upstream commit 9c9f015bc9f8839831c7ba0a6d731a3853c464e2 ]
Clang static analysis reports this error
brcmfmac/core.c:490:4: warning: Dereference of null pointer
(*ifp)->ndev->stats.rx_errors++;
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In this block of code
if (ret || !(*ifp) || !(*ifp)->ndev) {
if (ret != -ENODATA && *ifp)
(*ifp)->ndev->stats.rx_errors++;
brcmu_pkt_buf_free_skb(skb);
return -ENODATA;
}
(*ifp)->ndev being NULL is caught as an error
But then it is used to report the error.
So add a check before using it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
