[PATCH 3.11 008/182] tgafb: potential NULL dereference in init

[Luis Henriques]

3.11.10.9 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0ede5804ca3b42c831f7440ec29bc7187e5376bb upstream.

Static checkers complain that there are paths where "tga_type_name" can
be NULL.  I've re-arranged the code slightly so that's impossible.
