From: Zhang Lixu <lixu.zhang@intel.com>

The variable dev->devc in ish_dev_init was utilized by dev_err before it
was properly assigned. To rectify this, the assignment of dev->devc has
been moved to immediately follow memory allocation.

Without this change "(NULL device *)" is printed for device information.

Fixes: 8ae2f2b0a284 ("HID: intel-ish-hid: ipc: Fix potential use-after-free in work function")
Fixes: ae02e5d40d5f ("HID: intel-ish-hid: ipc layer")

This is not an important change to submit to rc cycle.
This is just a logging issue.

Thanks,

Agreed about the severity. However it fixes a user-visible issue and 
doesn't have a potential to cause any regression, so I have just queued it 
in hid.git#for-6.9/upstream-fixes nevertheless.
