[PATCH 4.12 40/99] ALSA: firewire: fix NULL pointer dereference when releasing uninitialized data of iso-resource

commit 0c264af7be2013266c5b4c644f3f366399ee490a upstream.

When calling 'iso_resource_free()' for uninitialized data, this function
causes NULL pointer dereference due to its 'unit' member. This occurs when
unplugging audio and music units on IEEE 1394 bus at failure of card
registration.

This commit fixes the bug. The bug exists since kernel v4.5.

Fixes: 8865a31e0fd8 ('ALSA: firewire-motu: postpone sound card registration') at v4.12
