Subject: [PATCH 4.9 067/103] net: usb: pegasus: fix improper read if get_registers() fail

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

commit 224c04973db1125fcebefffd86115f99f50f8277 upstream.

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