[PATCH 072/104] hwmon: (applesmc) Check key count before proceeding

[Kamal Mostafa]

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

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

From: Henrik Rydberg <rydberg at euromail.se>

commit 5f4513864304672e6ea9eac60583eeac32e679f2 upstream.

After reports from Chris and Josh Boyer of a rare crash in applesmc,
Guenter pointed at the initialization problem fixed below. The patch
has not been verified to fix the crash, but should be applied
regardless.
