Do not unconditionally access the chan variable in
brcmf_cfg80211_mgmt_tx() as it may be NULL.
Use freq instead.

FWIW, driver fixes like this come to me rather than Johannes...

I sent this to Johannes because this is fixing a patch I sent a couple of days
ago, and therefore I did not know if this patch was already in your tree or not.
