Subject: usbnet: smsc95xx: dereferencing NULL pointer
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8bca81d9875c7768c40a19fb439eebaf6cec898d;p=linux-beck.git

usbnet: smsc95xx: dereferencing NULL pointer

we were dereferencing dev to initialize pdata. but just after that we
have a BUG_ON(!dev). so we were basically dereferencing the pointer
first and then tesing it for NULL.
