Before committing 79597c8bf64c, *rac97 always be NULL if there is
an error. When error happens, make sure *rac97 is NULL is safer.

For examble, in snd_vortex_mixer():
	err = snd_ac97_mixer(pbus, &ac97, &vortex->codec);
	vortex->isquad = ((vortex->codec == NULL) ?
		0 : (vortex->codec->ext_id&0x80));
If error happened but vortex->codec isn't NULL, this may cause some
problems.

Move the judgement order to be clearer and better.
