4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b2fc059fa549fe6881d4c1f8d698b0f50bcd16ec ] Avoid dereferencing pointer g until after g has been sanity null checked; move the assignment of cdev much later when it is required into a more local scope.
