Subject: [PATCH 09/12] isdn/capi: prevent NULL pointer dereference on invalid
 CAPI command

An invalid CAPI 2.0 command/subcommand combination may retrieve a
NULL pointer from the cpars[] array which will later be dereferenced
by the parser routines.
Fix by adding NULL pointer checks in strategic places.
