[PATCH] udlfb: fix potential NULL pointer dereference in dlfb_usb_probe

[Wen Yang]

This patch fixes a possible null pointer dereference in
dlfb_usb_probe, detected by the semantic patch deref_null.cocci,
with the following warning:

drivers/video/fbdev/udlfb.c:1704:11-15: ERROR: dlfb is NULL but dereferenced.

The following code has potential null pointer references:
1597         /* usb initialization */
1598         dlfb = kzalloc(sizeof(*dlfb), GFP_KERNEL);
1599         if (!dlfb) {
...
1601             goto error;
1602         }
...
1703 error:
1704         if (dlfb->info) {
1705                 dlfb_ops_destroy(dlfb->info);
1706         } else if (dlfb) {
1707                 usb_put_dev(dlfb->udev);
1708                 kfree(dlfb);
1709         }
