-------------------
This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
-------------------
commit 6960f40a954619857e7095a6179eef896f297077 upstream.
Make sure that we check the return value of tty_port_tty_get.
Sometimes it may return NULL and we later dereference that.
The only place here is in kobil_read_int_callback, so fix it.
