Subject: [08/17] atl1: fix resume

2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Luca Tettamanti <kronos.it@...il.com>

commit ec5a32f67c603b11d68eb283d94eb89a4f6cfce1 upstream.

adapter->cmb.cmb is initialized when the device is opened and freed when
it's closed. Accessing it unconditionally during resume results either
in a crash (NULL pointer dereference, when the interface has not been
opened yet) or data corruption (when the interface has been used and
brought down adapter->cmb.cmb points to a deallocated memory area).
