[Qemu-trivial] [PATCH] linux-users/syscall: make do_ioctl_rt safer

[Alex Bennée]

host_rt_dev_ptr is set while looping through a control structure. The
compiler can not know that all structures passed to do_ioctl_rt will
trigger the if clause so rightly complains with an --enable-sanitizers
build. To keep the compiler happy we default the host_rt_dev_ptr and
check it has been set before attempting to follow it.
