[PATCH] input: synaptics-rmi4: check for null rmi_dev before it is dereferenced

From: Colin King <hidden>
Date: 2016-12-20 10:08:38

From: Colin Ian King <redacted>

rmi_dev is currently being dereferenced before it null checked, so we
have a potential null pointer dereference issue with this.  Fix this
by dereferencing rmi_dev after a null check has been performed.

Fixes CoverityScan CID 1391218 ("Dereference before null check")

I'd rather we removed the NULL check instead. As far as I can see it
can't even be NULL.
