Subject: [PATCH 4.2 009/134] nfc: netlink: Warning fix

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

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

From: Christophe Ricard <christophe.ricard@...il.com>

commit adca3c38d807b341a965d0aba8721d0784d8471b upstream.

When NFC_ATTR_VENDOR_DATA is not set, data_len is 0 and data is NULL.

Fixes the following warning:

net/nfc/netlink.c:1536:3: warning: 'data' may be used uninitialized
+in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
      return cmd->doit(dev, data, data_len);
