[RFC,0/1] Hwsim crash when receiving cloned frame

Message

I am unsure if this is the proper way to fix this problem since it
ends up just dropping the frame when this happens. If 'channel'
*should* be initialized by the time we are receiving frames then
there may be a race somewhere. If its functionally ok for 'channel'
to be NULL, then maybe this fix is alright.

I realize it had been suggested to provide a decoded crash with
a debuggable kernel, but I really dont see how that could provide
any additional information above what is here. Because of this I
sent as an RFC and we can discuss further if needed.
