In drivers/net/usb/hso.c::hso_create_bulk_serial_device() we have this code: ... serial = kzalloc(sizeof(*serial), GFP_KERNEL); if (!serial) goto exit; ... exit: hso_free_tiomget(serial); ... hso_free_tiomget() directly dereferences its argument, which in the example above is a NULL pointer, ouch. I could just add a 'if (serial)' test at the 'exit' label, but since most freeing functions in the kernel accept NULL pointers (and it seems like this was also assumed here) I opted to instead change 'hso_free_tiomget()' so that it is safe to call it with a NULL argument. I also modified the function to get rid of a pointles conditional before the call to 'usb_free_urb()' since that function already tests for NULL itself - besides fixing the NULL deref this change also buys us a few bytes in size.
