Subject[PATCH 1/2] rsxx: Fix potential NULL dereference setting up debugfs
The "card->gendisk" pointer is allocated in rsxx_setup_dev() but there
is a module option "enable_blkdev" which lets people disable the block
device. In that situation the "card->gendisk" pointer is NULL and it
would lead to a NULL dereference here.

Fixes: 36f988e978f8 ("rsxx: Adding in debugfs entries.")

This patch is from static analysis. The patch is obviously harmless.
So far as I can tell, the bug is real. But maybe a different solution
is prefered?
