Hello Ajay Singh,

The patch 8f1a0ac1eba7: "staging: wilc1000: handle scan operation
callback from cfg80211 context" from Dec 2, 2018, leads to the
following static checker warning:

        drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wfi_cfgoperations.c:562 scan()
        error: NULL dereference inside function 'wilc_scan()'

The old code used to have a check for NULL.
