Subject[PATCH v3 14/15] [media] lirc_dev: fix potential segfault
Date
When opening or closing a lirc character device, the framework
provides to the user the possibility to keep track of opening or
closing of the device by calling two functions:

- set_use_inc() when opening the device
- set_use_dec() when closing the device

if those are not set by the lirc user, the system segfaults.
Check the pointer value before calling the above functions.
