Ming Yen Hsieh adc3fd2a22 wifi: mt76: mt7921: fix kernel panic due to null pointer dereference
Address a kernel panic caused by a null pointer dereference in the
`mt792x_rx_get_wcid` function. The issue arises because the `deflink` structure
is not properly initialized with the `sta` context. This patch ensures that the
`deflink` structure is correctly linked to the `sta` context, preventing the
null pointer dereference.

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000400

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 reStructuredText 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.
