    isdn: guard against a potential NULL pointer dereference in 
old_capi_manufacturer()
    
    In drivers/isdn/capi/kcapi.c::old_capi_manufacturer(), if the call to
    get_capi_ctr_by_nr(ldef.contr); in line 823 returns NULL, then we'll be
    dereferencing a NULL pointer in the very next line.
    
    (Found by Coverity checker as bug #402)
