This obviously doesn't solve anything as we have already dereferenced
the card->host above. In other words we should hit a NULL pointer
dereference bug then.
More exactly, how do you trigger this problem?
I am porting this fix in the older kernel version 3.4. In that version
3.4, the pointer check was needed.
Obviously, this NULL pointer check is not helping anything here as you
pointed out. I will remove this check and resubmit.
