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

------------------

From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" <garsi...@embeddedor.com>


[ Upstream commit 62a277d43d47e74972de44d33bd3763e31992414 ]

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

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

This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

Fixes: 4483320e241c ("dmaengine: Use Pointer xt after NULL check.")
