commit 15bc8966b6d3a5b9bfe4c9facfa02f2b69b1e5f0 upstream.
When we are not connected to a channel, sending channel "switch" announcement doesn't make any sense.
The BSS list is empty in that case. This causes the for loop in cfg80211_get_bss() to be bypassed, so the function returns NULL (check line 1424 of net/wireless/scan.c), causing the WARN_ON() in ieee80211_ibss_csa_beacon() to get triggered (check line 500 of net/mac80211/ibss.c), which was consequently reported on the syzkaller dashboard.
Thus, check if we have an existing connection before generating the CSA beacon in ieee80211_ibss_finish_csa().
