wext: fix NULL-ptr-dereference with cfg80211's lack of commit()
commit 51225651 upstream. Since cfg80211 doesn't implement commit, we never really cared about that code there (and it's configured out w/o CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT). After all, since it has no commit, it shouldn't return -EIWCOMMIT to indicate commit is needed. However, EIWCOMMIT is actually an alias for EINPROGRESS, which _can_ happen if e.g. we try to change the frequency but we're already in the process of connecting to some network, and drivers could return that value (or even cfg80211 itself might). This then causes us to crash because dev->wireless_handlers is NULL but we try to check dev->wireless_handlers->standard[0]. Fix this by also checking dev->wireless_handlers. Also simplify the code a little bit.
