Subject: Q: NET/JME: pci_get_drvdata pointer return check at jme_remove

Hi,

looking at the jme_init_one error path, the context of the driver data
is set to null.

If the driver unloads , the unload _remove_one, will be called and
deferencing the pointer, leading to a oops.

so we need to have a check at before doing the netdev_priv at remove_one.

Please correct me if my understanding is wrong....

Thanks,
Devendra.
