3.13.11-ckt38 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter at oracle.com>

commit 227f33beab746aeec4ef3305bd17b1d374df09e7 upstream.

We could end up dereferencing an error pointer when we call
regulator_disable().

Fixes: 4bdcb1dd9feb ('net: Add MDIO bus driver for the Allwinner EMAC')
