[PATCH] Char: isicom, fix close bug
port is dereferenced even if it is NULL. Dereference it _after_ the check if (!port)... Thanks Eric <ef87@yahoo.com> for reporting this. This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7527 Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
