4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit 225d9464268599a5b4d094d02ec17808e44c7553 ] In the unlikely event that the kmalloc call in vmci_transport_socket_init() fails, we end-up calling vmci_transport_destruct() with a NULL vmci_trans() and oopsing. This change addresses the above explicitly checking for zero vmci_trans() at destruction time.
