Function es58x_fd_rx_event() invokes the es58x_check_msg_len() macro:
| ret = es58x_check_msg_len(es58x_dev->dev, *rx_event_msg, msg_len);
While doing so, it dereferences an uninitialized
variable: *rx_event_msg.
This is actually harmless because es58x_check_msg_len() only uses
preprocessor macros (sizeof() and __stringify()) on
*rx_event_msg. c.f. [1].
Nonetheless, this pattern is confusing so the lines are reordered to
make sure that rx_event_msg is correctly initialized.
This patch also fixes a false positive warning reported by cppcheck:
| cppcheck possible warnings: (new ones prefixed by >>, may not be real problems)

| In file included from drivers/net/can/usb/etas_es58x/es58x_fd.c:

| ret = es58x_check_msg_len(es58x_dev->dev, *rx_event_msg, msg_len);
