[PATCH v6 1/9] input: max8997-haptic: Fix NULL pointer dereference

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




From: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx>

NULL pointer derefence happens when booting with DTB because the
platform data for haptic device is not set in supplied data from parent
MFD device.

The MFD device creates only platform data (from Device Tree) for itself,
not for haptic child.

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000009c
pgd = c0004000
