Subject: [PATCH 4/4] net: caif: spi: fix potential NULL dereference
alloc_netdev() is not checked here for NULL return value. dev is
check instead. It might lead to NULL dereference of ndev.
Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov <segoon@...nwall.com>

Compile tested.
Maybe dev is also must be checked here, but it looks like a trivial typo.
