3.11.10.9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter at oracle.com>
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.
