cfg80211: fix a crash in nl80211_send_station
mac80211 leaves sinfo->assoc_req_ies uninitialized, causing a random pointer memory access in nl80211_send_station. Instead of checking if the pointer is null, use sinfo->filled, like the rest of the fields. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
