Hello Kent Overstreet,

The patch cafe56359144: "bcache: A block layer cache" from Mar 23,
2013, leads to the following static checker warning:

	./drivers/md/bcache/super.c:770 bcache_device_free()
	warn: variable dereferenced before check 'd->disk' (see line 766)

drivers/md/bcache/super.c
   762  static void bcache_device_free(struct bcache_device *d)
   763  {
   764          lockdep_assert_held(&bch_register_lock);
   765  
   766          pr_info("%s stopped", d->disk->disk_name);
                                      ^^^^^^^^^
Unchecked dereference.

   767  
   768          if (d->c)
   769                  bcache_device_detach(d);
   770          if (d->disk && d->disk->flags & GENHD_FL_UP)
                    ^^^^^^^
Check too late.

   771                  del_gendisk(d->disk);
   772          if (d->disk && d->disk->queue)
   773                  blk_cleanup_queue(d->disk->queue);
   774          if (d->disk) {
   775                  ida_simple_remove(&bcache_device_idx,
   776                                    first_minor_to_idx(d->disk->first_minor));
   777                  put_disk(d->disk);
   778          }
   779
