[PATCH] ALSA: core: Fix possible null-pointer dereferences in snd_timer_proc_read()

[Jia-Ju Bai]

In snd_timer_proc_read(), there is an if statement on line 1204 to check
whether timer->card is NULL:
    if (timer->card && timer->card->shutdown)

When timer->card is NULL, it is used on lines 1212 and 1215:
    timer->card->number

Thus, possible null-pointer dereferences may occur.

To fix these bugs, timer->card is checked before being used.

These bugs are found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.
