Subject: [PATCH 4.7 100/141] cxl: fix potential NULL dereference in free_adapter()

4.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andrew Donnellan <andrew.donnellan@....ibm.com>

commit 8fbaa51d43ef2c6a72849ec34060910723a0365f upstream.

If kzalloc() fails when allocating adapter->guest in
cxl_guest_init_adapter(), we call free_adapter() before erroring out.
free_adapter() in turn attempts to dereference adapter->guest, which in
this case is NULL.

In free_adapter(), skip the adapter->guest cleanup if adapter->guest is
NULL.

Fixes: 14baf4d9c739 ("cxl: Add guest-specific code")
