3.16.7-ckt5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Anton Blanchard <anton at samba.org>
commit cd32e2dcc9de6c27ecbbfc0e2079fb64b42bad5f upstream.
We have some code in udbg_uart_getc_poll() that tries to protect
against a NULL udbg_uart_in, but gets it all wrong.
Found with the LLVM static analyzer (scan-build).
Fixes: 309257484cc1 ("powerpc: Cleanup udbg_16550 and add support for LPC PIO-only UARTs")
