[for-linus][PATCH 4/9] tracing: Fix mmiotrace possible NULL dereferencing of hiter->dev

[Steven Rostedt <rostedt@kernel.org>]

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

If the mmio_pipe_open() fails to find a PCI device, the hiter->dev
will be assigned to NULL. The mmiotrace read() function dereferences the
hiter->dev if hiter exists.

Change the test of the read to not only check hiter being NULL, but also
the hiter->dev before dereferencing it.
