[PATCH] Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in echoaudio midi.
From: Jesper Juhl
Date: Tue Oct 31 2006 - 16:20:47 EST
In sound/pci/echoaudio/midi.c::snd_echo_midi_output_write(), there's a risk
of dereferencing a NULL 'chip->midi_out'.
This patch contains the obvious fix as also used a bit higher up in the
same function.
