[PATCH] staging: lustre: lustre: obdclass: lprocfs_status.c: Fix for possible null pointer dereference
From: Rickard Strandqvist
Date: Sun Dec 14 2014 - 17:33:54 EST
There is otherwise a risk of a possible null pointer dereference.
Was largely found by using a static code analysis program called cppcheck.
