rndis_host: fix oops when query for OID_GEN_PHYSICAL_MEDIUM fails
When query for OID_GEN_PHYSICAL_MEDIUM fails, uninitialized pointer 'phym' is being accessed in generic_rndis_bind(), resulting OOPS. Patch fixes phym to be initialized and setup correctly when rndis_query() for physical medium fails. Bug was introduced by following commit: commit 039ee17d1baabaa21783a0d5ab3e8c6d8c794bdf Author: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi> Date: Sun Jan 27 23:34:33 2008 +0200 Reported-by: Dmitri Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi> Acked-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
