From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" garsilva@embeddedor.com

[ Upstream commit 727535903bea924c4f73abb202c4b3e85fff0ca4 ]

_vreg_ is being dereferenced before it is null checked, hence there is a potential null pointer dereference.

Fix this by moving the pointer dereference after _vreg_ has been null checked.

This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
