3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Stefan Richter <stef...@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
commit 8987583366ae9e03c306c2b7d73bdb952df1d08d upstream.
Commit 8408dc1c14c1 "firewire: net: use dev_printk API" introduced a
use-after-free in a failure path. fwnet_transmit_packet_failed(ptask)
may free ptask, then the dev_err() call dereferenced it. The fix is
straightforward; simply reorder the two calls.
