[PATCH 4.9 181/207] net: bnx2x: fix variable dereferenced before check

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Nov 24 2021 - 07:28:36 EST


From: Pavel Skripkin <paskripkin@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f8885ac89ce310570e5391fe0bf0ec9c7c9b4fdc ]

Smatch says:
bnx2x_init_ops.h:640 bnx2x_ilt_client_mem_op()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'ilt' (see line 638)

Move ilt_cli variable initialization _after_ ilt validation, because
it's unsafe to deref the pointer before validation check.

Fixes: 523224a3b3cd ("bnx2x, cnic, bnx2i: use new FW/HSI")
