[PATCH v2] HID: wacom: Prevent potential null dereference after disconnect

From: Jason Gerecke
Date: Wed Oct 08 2014 - 14:26:09 EST


Repeated connect/disconnect cycles under GNOME can trigger an occasional
OOPS from within e.g. wacom_led_select_store, presumably due to a timing
issue where userspace begins setting a value immediately before the
device disconnects and our shared data is whisked away.
