Subject: ALSA: line6: Fix NULL dereference at podhd_disconnect()

From: Takashi Iwai <[email protected]>

commit 54a4b2b45817ea2365b40c923c098a26af0c0dbb upstream.

When podhd_init() failed with the acquiring a ctrl i/f, the line6 helper still calls the disconnect callback that eventually calls again usb_driver_release_interface() with the NULL intf.

Put the proper NULL check before calling it for avoiding an Oops.

Fixes fc90172ba283 ("ALSA: line6: Claim pod x3 usb data interface")
