    Subject[patch 33/74] cfg80211: add two missing NULL pointer checks
    2.6.30-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

    ------------------

    From: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>

    commit cd3468bad96c00b5a512f551674f36776129520e upstream.

    These pointers can be NULL, the is_mesh() case isn't
    ever hit in the current kernel, but cmp_ies() can be
    hit under certain conditions.
