isdn: prevent NULL ptr Oops in capi_cmsg2str()
The dereferencing of the private pointer cmsg->m in capi_cmsg2str() may cause an Oops in case of an error, which is particularly inconvenient as that function is typically used to format an error message. Add a NULL pointer check to avoid this. Impact: error handling improvement Signed-off-by: Tilman Schmidt <tilman@imap.cc> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
