New Revision: 250442
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/250442

Log:
  Fix a VAP BSS node reference in the HT code to actually take a reference
  before using said node.
  
  The "blessed" way here is to take a node reference before referencing
  anything inside the node, otherwise the node can be freed between
  the time the pointer is copied/dereferenced and the time the node contents
  are used.
  
  This mirrors fixes that I've done elsewhere in the net80211/driver
  stack.
