KASAN report null-ptr-deref as follows:

KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f]
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.13.0-1ubuntu1.1 
04/01/2014
RIP: 0010:ipmi_unregister_smi+0x7d/0xd50 
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c:3680
Call Trace:
 ipmi_ipmb_remove+0x138/0x1a0 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_ipmb.c:443
 ipmi_ipmb_probe+0x409/0xda1 drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_ipmb.c:548

 really_probe+0x3f3/0xa70 drivers/base/dd.c:541

In ipmi_ipmb_probe(), 'iidev->intf' is not set before ipmi_register_smi() 
success.
And in the error handling case, ipmi_ipmb_remove() is called to release 
resources,
ipmi_unregister_smi() is called without check 'iidev->intf', this will cause 
KASAN
null-ptr-deref issue.

Fix by adding NULL check prior to calling ipmi_unregister_smi().

Fixes: 57c9e3c9a374 ("ipmi:ipmi_ipmb: Unregister the SMI on remove")
