drivers/net/ethernet/ti/davinci_cpdma.c: Remove potential NULL dereference
Author: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr>
If the NULL test is necessary, the initialization involving a dereference of
the tested value should be moved after the NULL test.
The sematic patch that fixes this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
//

type T;
expression E;
identifier i,fld;
statement S;
@@
- T i = E->fld;
+ T i;
... when != E
when != i
if (E == NULL) S
+ i = E->fld;
