[PATCH 3/8] cxacru: check device isn't being removed during sysfscalls

From: Simon Arlott
Date: Sat Nov 21 2009 - 10:26:25 EST


It is possible for usb_get_intfdata() to return NULL if
sysfs is accessed while the module is being unloaded or
the device is being removed.

Move the access code to inline functions in usbatm.h,
and return -ENODEV if any of the pointers is NULL.

It should not be possible for the instance data or atm
device to be invalid until after unbind() completes and
the sysfs attributes have been removed.
