mac80211: fix potential use-after-free
commit d2722f8b87fb172ff2f31d3a2816b31d58678d40 upstream. The bss struct might be freed in ieee80211_rx_bss_put(), so we shouldn't use it afterwards. Fixes: 817cee7675237 ("mac80211: track AP's beacon rate and give it to the driver") Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
