The patch ASoC: max98373: check for device node before parsing has been applied to the asoc tree at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git for-5.4 All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 4bb41984bf2f4cb8ed6ec1579d317790bd941788 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sathyanarayana Nujella <sathyanarayana.nujella@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 28 Sep 2019 13:22:30 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: max98373: check for device node before parsing Below Oops is caused in a system which uses ACPI instead of device node: of_get_named_gpiod_flags: can't parse 'maxim,reset-gpio' property of node '(null)[0]' BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010 This patch avoids NULL pointer deferencing by adding a check before parsing and initializes to make reset-gpio pin as invalid.
