mac80211: fix NULL pointer dereference when ftrace is enabled
I got below kernel oops when I try to bring down the network interface if ftrace is enabled. The root cause is drv_ampdu_action() is passed with a NULL ssn pointer in the BA session tear down case. We need to check and avoid dereferencing it in trace entry assignment.
