Subject: [PATCH 4.14 28/43] IB/hfi1: Fix NULL pointer dereference when invalid num_vls is used

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

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

From: Sebastian Sanchez <sebastian.sanchez@...el.com>

commit 45d924571a5e1329580811f2419da61b07ac3613 upstream.

When an invalid num_vls is used as a module parameter, the code
execution follows an exception path where the macro dd_dev_err()
expects dd->pcidev->dev not to be NULL in hfi1_init_dd(). This
causes a NULL pointer dereference.

Fix hfi1_init_dd() by initializing dd->pcidev and dd->pcidev->dev
earlier in the code. If a dd exists, then dd->pcidev and
dd->pcidev->dev always exists.

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference
