Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 16/33] net: usb: pegasus: fix improper read if get_registers() fail

From: Denis Kirjanov <kda@...ux-powerpc.org>

[ Upstream commit 224c04973db1125fcebefffd86115f99f50f8277 ]

get_registers() may fail with -ENOMEM and in this
case we can read a garbage from the status variable tmp.
