Subject: Fix a potential NULL pointer deref in the aic7xxx, ahc_print_register() function
From: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@xxxxxxxxx>

The Coverity checker noticed that we have a potential NULL pointer
deref in drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_core.c::ahc_print_register().
This patch handles it by adding the same test against NULL that is
used elsewhere in the same function.
