In sky2_open() free_buffers() is called in case that alloc_buffers() failed.
Here we do the check for sky2->rx_le too late, since we already called
rx_clean() which accessed rx_le. Furthermore we lack a check for sky2->rx_ring
which is also accessed by rx_clean().

With this patch both sky2->rx_le and sky2->rx_ring are checked before
alloc_buffers() is called.

Stephen, I'm still waiting on your review of this patch.

Thanks.

Looking at sky2_alloc_buffers, it really needs to change to have
proper unwind instead. If some portion of the memory required isn't available
everything needs to be undone.
