-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

From: Marc Pignat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

patch e0579d576cb894a4cf3c5af04fbf38e8c1281738 in mainline.

The disconnect function can dereference the net_device structure when it
is never allocated. This is the case when ejecting the device installer.
