Subject: USB: io_ti: Fix NULL dereference in chase_port()
From: Wolfgang Frisch <wfpub@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 1ee0a224bc9aad1de496c795f96bc6ba2c394811 upstream.
The tty is NULL when the port is hanging up.
chase_port() needs to check for this.
This patch is intended for stable series.
The behavior was observed and tested in Linux 3.2 and 3.7.1.
Johan Hovold submitted a more elaborate patch for the mainline kernel.
