Subject: s390/dasd: check for device error pointer within state change interrupts

From: Stefan Haberland <sth@linux.vnet.ibm.com>


[ Upstream commit 2202134e48a3b50320aeb9e3dd1186833e9d7e66 ]

Check if the device pointer is valid. Just a sanity check since we already
are in the int handler of the device.
