From 127d0a198a310970b31866af8bbb6d4b1068e546 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2012 14:08:28 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] bnx2x: fix a crash on corrupt firmware file If the requested firmware is deemed corrupt and then released, reset the pointer to NULL in order to avoid double-freeing it in bnx2x_release_firmware() or dereferencing it in bnx2x_init_firmware().
