[PATCH] scsi: lpfc: sanity check hrq is null before dereferencing it

Show all headers | View raw

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The sanity check for hrq should be moved to before the deference
of hrq to ensure we don't perform a null pointer deference.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1411650 ("Dereference before null check")
