[PATCH 1/3] UBUNTU: SAUCE: opennsl: bcm-knet: check for null sinfo to avoid a null pointer dereference

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>

BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/1718388

sinfo can potentially be null, so add a null check to avoid a null
pointer deference on sinfo->info_id.

Detected by CoverityScan CID#1456902 ("Dereference before null check")
