Re: [PATCH] drm/radeon: fix NULL pointer dereference in UMS mode in radeon_cs_parser_fini()

Actually, the code path affected by your patch is not executed in UMS mode at all. Notice that radeon_cs_parser_fini is only called from radeon_cs_ioctl which is a KMS-only ioctl (see radeon_kms.c).

The equivalent of the fix you are trying to do is in
a6b7e1a02b77ab8fe8775d20a88c53d8ba55482e (function patched by that one is the one used by legacy-CS ioctl), which you should go together with ff4bd0827764e10a428a9d39e6814c5478863f94 if you are backporting UMS fixes to 3.7. Both are needed to prevent kernel crashes in UMS mode.
