      [media] dvb core: only start media entity if not NULL · 8a26a258
      Mauro Carvalho Chehab authored
      The logic there tries to start the media entity even if it
      doesn't exist, causing this bug:
      
      	[  314.356162] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000010
      	[  314.356202] IP: [<ffffffffa02ef74c>] media_entity_pipeline_start+0x1c/0x390 [media]

      .. after extensive statistical analysis of my G+ polling, I've come to
      the inescapable conclusion that internet polls are bad.
      
      Big surprise.
      
      But "Hurr durr I'ma sheep" trounced "I like online polls" by a 62-to-38%
      margin, in a poll that people weren't even supposed to participate in.
      Who can argue with solid numbers like that? 5,796 votes from people who
      can't even follow the most basic directions?
      
      In contrast, "v4.0" beat out "v3.20" by a slimmer margin of 56-to-44%,
      but with a total of 29,110 votes right now.
      
      Now, arguably, that vote spread is only about 3,200 votes, which is less
      than the almost six thousand votes that the "please ignore" poll got, so
      it could be considered noise.
      
      But hey, I asked, so I'll honor the votes.
