  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  wifi: mac80211: fix initialization of rx-\u003Elink and rx-\u003Elink_sta  There are some codepaths that do not initialize rx-\u003Elink_sta properly. This causes a crash in places which assume that rx-\u003Elink_sta is valid if rx-\u003Esta is valid. One known instance is triggered by __ieee80211_rx_h_amsdu being called from fast-rx. It results in a crash like this one:   BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000000a8  #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode  #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0  Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI  CPU: 1 PID: 506 Comm: mt76-usb-rx phy Tainted: G            E      6.1.0-debian64x\u002B1.7 #3  Hardware name: ZOTAC ZBOX-ID92/ZBOX-IQ01/ZBOX-ID92/ZBOX-IQ01, BIOS B220P007 05/21/2014  RIP: 0010:ieee80211_deliver_skb\u002B0x62/0x1f0 [mac80211]  Code: 00 48 89 04 24 e8 9e a7 c3 df 89 c0 48 03 1c c5 a0 ea 39 a1 4c 01 6b 08 48 ff 03 48        83 7d 28 00 74 11 48 8b 45 30 48 63 55 44 \u003C48\u003E 83 84 d0 a8 00 00 00 01 41 8b 86 c0        11 00 00 8d 50 fd 83 fa 01  RSP: 0018:ffff999040803b10 EFLAGS: 00010286  RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffffb9903f496480 RCX: 0000000000000000  RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000000  RBP: ffff999040803ce0 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000  R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff8d21828ac900  R13: 000000000000004a R14: ffff8d2198ed89c0 R15: ffff8d2198ed8000  FS:  0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8d24afe80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000  CS:  0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033  CR2: 00000000000000a8 CR3: 0000000429810002 CR4: 00000000001706e0  Call Trace:   \u003CTASK\u003E   __ieee80211_rx_h_amsdu\u002B0x1b5/0x240 [mac80211]   ? ieee80211_prepare_and_rx_handle\u002B0xcdd/0x1320 [mac80211]   ? __local_bh_enable_ip\u002B0x3b/0xa0   ieee80211_prepare_and_rx_handle\u002B0xcdd/0x1320 [mac80211]   ? prepare_transfer\u002B0x109/0x1a0 [xhci_hcd]   ieee80211_rx_list\u002B0xa80/0xda0 [mac80211]   mt76_rx_complete\u002B0x207/0x2e0 [mt76]   mt76_rx_poll_complete\u002B0x357/0x5a0 [mt76]   mt76u_rx_worker\u002B0x4f5/0x600 [mt76_usb]   ? mt76_get_min_avg_rssi\u002B0x140/0x140 [mt76]   __mt76_worker_fn\u002B0x50/0x80 [mt76]   kthread\u002B0xed/0x120   ? kthread_complete_and_exit\u002B0x20/0x20   ret_from_fork\u002B0x22/0x30  Since the initialization of rx-\u003Elink and rx-\u003Elink_sta is rather convoluted and duplicated in many places, clean it up by using a helper function to set it.
