Tetsuo Handa b0ec7e55fc ath9k_htc: fix NULL pointer dereference at ath9k_htc_rxep()
syzbot is reporting lockdep warning followed by kernel panic at
ath9k_htc_rxep() [1], for ath9k_htc_rxep() depends on ath9k_rx_init()
being already completed.

Since ath9k_htc_rxep() is set by ath9k_htc_connect_svc(WMI_BEACON_SVC)
 from ath9k_init_htc_services(), it is possible that ath9k_htc_rxep() is
called via timer interrupt before ath9k_rx_init() from ath9k_init_device()
is called.

Since we can't call ath9k_init_device() before ath9k_init_htc_services(),
let's hold ath9k_htc_rxep() no-op until ath9k_rx_init() completes.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
