sym53c8xx: Fix NULL pointer dereference in slave_destroy
commit cced5041ed5a2d1352186510944b0ddfbdbe4c0b upstream. sym53c8xx_slave_destroy unconditionally assumes that sym53c8xx_slave_alloc has succesesfully allocated a sym_lcb. This can lead to a NULL pointer dereference (exposed by commit 4e6c82b).
