syzkaller reported use-after-free in load_firmware_cb() [1].
The reason is because the module allocated a struct tuner in tuner_probe(),
and then the module initialization failed, the struct tuner was released.
If a worker which created during module initialization accesses this struct
later, it will cause use-after-free.

The process is as follows:

task-6504           worker_thread
tuner_probe                                <= alloc dvb_frontend [2]
...
request_firmware_nowait                    <= create a worker for request_firmware_work_func
...
tuner_remove                               <= free dvb_frontend
...
                    request_firmware_work_func  <= the firmware is ready
                        load_firmware_cb   <= but now the dvb_frontend has been freed.

To fix the issue, Check the dvd_frontend in load_firmware_cb(), if it is null, report a warning
and just return.

    Actually, it is allocated for struct tuner, and dvb_frontend is inside.
