rtl8180: avoid NULL dereference in max2820_rf_set_channel
The static function max2820_rf_set_channel is called with conf == NULL within its compilation unit. Originally this defaulted to b/g channel 1, but "cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversion" (commit 8318d78a44d49ac1edf2bdec7299de3617c4232e) mistakenly dropped this check. This patch minimally restores the expected behavior. Reported-by: Colin Lai <colin_sh@163.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
