3.16.7-ckt3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mark Rustad <mark.d.rustad@intel.com>

commit 508a8c9e264e1057f663e578c47c5ffa00adb160 upstream.

In ixgbe_probe, the code at label err_dma can dereference adapter
when it has a NULL value. The check is there to avoid disabling a
disabled device. When adapter is NULL, treat it as if the device
is enabled, because it is enabled in that case.
