+Subject: [PATCH] wimax: i2400m - prevent a possible kernel bug due to missing
+ fw_name string
+
+This happened on a machine with a custom hotplug script calling nameif,
+probably due to slow firmware loading. At the time nameif uses ethtool
+to gather interface information, i2400m->fw_name is zero and so a null
+pointer dereference occurs from within i2400m_get_drvinfo().
