Omap MMC driver initialization can cause a NULL pointer dereference in tasklet_hi_action on Nokia N810 if its miniSD cover is open during driver initialization. Reason for this is that omap_notify_cover_event which calls tasklet_hi_schedule gets called before struct cover_tasklet is initialized. Call to omap_notify_cover_event on Nokia N810 happens from menelaus.c PMIC driver via board-n8x0.c during execution of mmc_add_host in case of open miniSD cover. Fix this by moving cover_timer and cover_tasklet initialization before mmc_add_host call in mmc_omap_new_slot.
