4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit 030e2c78d3a91dd0d27fef37e91950dde333eba1 upstream. snd_seq_ioctl_remove_events() calls snd_seq_fifo_clear() unconditionally even if there is no FIFO assigned, and this leads to an Oops due to NULL dereference. The fix is just to add a proper NULL check.
