drivers/net/ethernet/ti/davinci_cpdma.c: Remove potential NULL dereference

the tested value should be moved after the NULL test.
The sematic patch that fixes this problem is as follows:

type T;
expression E;
identifier i,fld;
statement S;

- T i = E->fld;
+ T i;
... when != E
when != i
if (E == NULL) S
+ i = E->fld;
// </smpl>
