Subject: [PATCH] amso1100: Add check if cache memory was allocated before freeing it

From: Svetlana Mavrina <another.karnil@...il.com>

There is a path in handle_vq() where kmem_cache_free()
can be called with pointer to a local variable.
It can happen if vq_repbuf_alloc() failed to allocate memory from cache
and req is NULL.

The patch adds check if cache memory was allocated before freeing it.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
