Subject[PATCH 4.9 43/57] ipack: ipoctal: fix tty-registration error handling
Date
From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>

commit cd20d59291d1790dc74248476e928f57fc455189 upstream.

Registration of the ipoctal tty devices is unlikely to fail, but if it
ever does, make sure not to deregister a never registered tty device
(and dereference a NULL pointer) when the driver is later unbound.

Fixes: 2afb41d9d30d ("Staging: ipack/devices/ipoctal: Check tty_register_device return value.")
