staging: comedi: fix result of memdup_user for user chanlist
commit e56b1401056288a725d50942ef300dcbed5e519a upstream. If the channel list is not set in userspace we get an error at PTR_ERR(async->cmd.chanlist). However, do_become_nonbusy(dev, s) cleans up this pointer which causes a kernel ooops. Setting the channel list in async to NULL and checking this in do_become_nonbusy prevents the oops. [Ian Abbott] Also do the same for the chanlist allocated in do_cmdtest_ioctl().
