priv is being dereferenced when it is still null, hence there is an

Also, memory allocated for netdev at line 854:
netdev = alloc_etherdev(sizeof(*priv));
is not being free'd, hence there is a memory leak.
Fix this by null checking priv before dererefencing it and free netdev
before return.

This isn't required because the next thing we do to card is kfree(card).
I got it.

That's too complicated. Just do:
err_free_netdev:
free_netdev(net_dev);
err_release_irq:
...
Please send a v2 patch.
Sure thing, I'll send it shortly.
Thanks for the feedback.
