ALSA: ac97: Fix possible error value of *rac97
Before committing 79597c8bf64c, *rac97 always be NULL if there is an error. When error happens, make sure *rac97 is NULL is safer. For examble, in snd_vortex_mixer(): err = snd_ac97_mixer(pbus, &ac97, &vortex->codec); vortex->isquad = ((vortex->codec == NULL) ? 0 : (vortex->codec->ext_id&0x80)); If error happened but vortex->codec isn't NULL, this may cause some problems. Move the judgement order to be clearer and better.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
