Subject: [PATCH] USB Elan FTDI: check for workqueue creation v2
Date: Sat, 24 Feb 2007 10:41:15 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070224074115.GB10139@cvg> (raw)

This patch prevents from NULL pointer usage if
workqueue creation failed.

Signed-off-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com>

Btw, Pete, you are right! C99 ANSI standart says that static pointer
if it not initialized explicitly has to be set to NULL by compiler ;)
Thanks a lot for comments and Ack the patch please.
