Subject[PATCH 10/10, corrected diffstat] drivers/net: Move a dereference below a NULL test
From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

If the NULL test is necessary, then the dereferences should be moved below
the NULL test.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>
@@
type T;
expression E,E1;
identifier i,fld;
statement S;
@@

- T i = E->fld;
+ T i;
... when != E=E1
when != i
BUG_ON (E == NULL||...);
+ i = E->fld;
// </smpl>

Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>
