First testing if a pointer is NULL and if it is (or might be), proceeding with code that dereferences that same pointer is clearly a mistake. This happens in sound/isa/sb/sb8_midi.c::snd_sb8dsp_midi_interrupt() The patch below reworks the code so this unfortunate case doesn't happen. Also remove some blank comments. Found by the Coverity checker as bug #367 Patch is compile testted only due to lack of hardware. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
