[ Upstream commit 0a94131d6920916ccb6a357037c535533af08819 ]

The function performs a check on the hdev input parameters, however, it
is used before the check.

Initialize the udev variable after the sanity check to avoid a
possible NULL pointer dereference.

Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1443827 ("Null pointer dereference")
