The bug is here: if (nvkm_cstate_valid(clk, cstate, max_volt, clk->temp)) return cstate; The list iterator value 'cstate' will *always* be set and non-NULL by list_for_each_entry_from_reverse(), so it is incorrect to assume that the iterator value will be unchanged if the list is empty or no element is found (In fact, it will be a bogus pointer to an invalid structure object containing the HEAD). Also it missed a NULL check at callsite and may lead to invalid memory access after that. To fix this bug, just return 'encoder' when found, otherwise return NULL. And add the NULL check.
