pvcalls-front: fix potential null dereference



 static checker warning:
    drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c:373 alloc_active_ring()
    error: we previously assumed 'map->active.ring' could be null
           (see line 357)

drivers/xen/pvcalls-front.c
    351 static int alloc_active_ring(struct sock_mapping *map)
    352 {
    353     void *bytes;
    354

    356         get_zeroed_page(GFP_KERNEL);
    357     if (!map->active.ring)
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    358         goto out;
    359
    360     map->active.ring->ring_order = PVCALLS_RING_ORDER;
    361     bytes = (void *)__get_free_pages(GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO,

    366     map->active.data.in = bytes;
    367     map->active.data.out = bytes +

    370     return 0;
    371
    372 out:
--> 373     free_active_ring(map);
                                 ^^^
Add null check on map->active.ring before dereferencing it to avoid
any NULL pointer dereferences.
