When building with -Warray-bounds, the following warning is emitted:

This is because the compiler sees it is possible for "ptr" to be a NULL
value, and concludes that it has zero size and attempts to copy to it
would overflow. Instead, remove the get_recvframe_data() entirely, as
it's not possible for this to ever be NULL.
Additionally add missing NULL checks after recvframe_pull() (which are
present in the rtl8712 driver).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
