In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: qedf: Add pointer checks in qedfupdatelink_speed()

The following trace was observed:

API qedflinkupdate() is getting called from QED but by that time shostdata is not initialised. This results in a NULL pointer dereference when we try to dereference shostdata while updating supported_speeds.

Add a NULL pointer check before dereferencing shost_data.
