[PATCH] USB: omninet: fix potential tty NULL dereference

From: Alexey Khoroshilov
Date: Thu Sep 13 2012 - 14:57:08 EST


Add check for return value of tty_port_tty_get,
since it can return NULL after port hangup that may happen anytime.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
