[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 01/28] HID: logitech: check the return value of create_singlethread_workqueue

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2019-04-24 14:50:22
Also in: linux-input, stable
Subsystem: hid core layer, hid logitech drivers, hid++ logitech drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Jiri Kosina, Benjamin Tissoires, Linus Torvalds

From: Kangjie Lu <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 6c44b15e1c9076d925d5236ddadf1318b0a25ce2 ]

create_singlethread_workqueue may fail and return NULL. The fix checks if it is
NULL to avoid NULL pointer dereference.  Also, the fix moves the call of
create_singlethread_workqueue earlier to avoid resource-release issues.
