USB: serial: sierra driver indat_callback fix
A crash has been reported with sierra driver on disconnect with Ubuntu/Lucid distribution based on kernel-2.6.32. The cause of the crash was determined as "NULL tty pointer was being referenced" and the NULL pointer was passed by sierra_indat_callback(). This patch modifies sierra_indat_callback() function to check for NULL tty structure pointer. This modification prevents a crash from happening when the device is disconnected.
