Hayes Wang 8e484ebb1e r8152: check the pointer rtl_fw->fw before using it
Fix the pointer rtl_fw->fw would be used before checking in
rtl8152_apply_firmware() that causes the following kernel oops.

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000002
pgd = (ptrval)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
