b43: fix NULL pointer dereference in b43_phy_copy()
phy_read and phy_write are not set for every phy any more sine this: commit d342b95dd735014a590f9051b1ba227eb54ca8f6 Author: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Date: Thu Jul 31 21:59:43 2014 +0200 b43: don't duplicate common PHY read/write ops b43_phy_copy() accesses phy_read and phy_write directly and will fail with some phys. This patch fixes the regression by using the b43_phy_read() and b43_phy_write() functions which should be used for read and write access. This should fix this bug report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87731 Reported-by: Volker Kempter <v.kempter@pe.tu-clausthal.de> Tested-by: Volker Kempter <v.kempter@pe.tu-clausthal.de> Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de> Signed-off-by: John W.
