Subject: [net-next 01/14] ixgbe: Fix possible null-dereference in error path

From: Mark Rustad <mark.d.rustad@...el.com>

In ixgbe_probe, the code at label err_dma can dereference adapter
when it has a NULL value. The check is there to avoid disabling a
disabled device. When adapter is NULL, treat it as if the device
is enabled, because it is enabled in that case.
