block/nullb: fix NULL dereference
Dan reported this: The patch 2984c8684f96: "nullb: factor disk parameters" from Aug 14, 2017, leads to the following Smatch complaint: drivers/block/null_blk.c:1759 null_init_tag_set() error: we previously assumed 'nullb' could be null (see line 1750) 1755 set->cmd_size = sizeof(struct nullb_cmd); 1756 set->flags = BLK_MQ_F_SHOULD_MERGE; 1757 set->driver_data = NULL; 1758 1759 if (nullb->dev->blocking) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ And an unchecked dereference. nullb could be NULL here.
