4 Subject: [PATCH] igb: Fix Null-pointer dereference in igb_reset_q_vector
6 When igb_set_interrupt_capability() calls
7 igb_reset_interrupt_capability() (e.g., because CONFIG_PCI_MSI is unset),
8 num_q_vectors has been set but no vector has yet been allocated.
10 igb_reset_interrupt_capability() will then call igb_reset_q_vector,
11 which assumes that the vector is allocated. As this is not the case, we
12 are accessing a NULL-pointer.
14 This patch fixes it by checking that q_vector is indeed different from
