This patch fix the problem by test the pointer before access it.

The question is why sg is NULL. I think this shouldn't happen.

Thats was my idea too. But had no time to debug it out.
As for_each_sg() iterate over the sg-list may its not set properly
before - In an earlier post
I ask for help but no-one returned so I quick fixed it.  Maybe now
the bell is loud enough ;-)
Please try to track it further down. Does this happen every time you are
in this function or does it happen only every once in a while? Does it
happen in the first iteration of the loop? is it an SDIO card or regular
SD card?

Sascha

Sascha,

there was a fix for a race condition:

commit 70aa6109597ea6955a93f16430b588b5ee5ba547
mmc: mxcmmc: fix race conditions for host->req and host->data access

do you think its possible that the current oops is kind of race?


Regards
Chris
