Potentially invalid memory accesses in file drivers/mmc/core/block.c

Hi there,

My name is Shaobo He and I am a graduate student at University of Utah. I am using a static analysis tool to search for null pointer dereferences and came across a couple of potentially invalid memory accesses in the file drivers/mmc/core/block.c: in function `force_ro_store`, function `mmc_blk_get` can return a NULL pointer. However, there are a couple of conditions that can make the error path infeasible. I was wondering if you could confirm this. Especially if the condition `dev_to_disk(dev)->private_data && dev_to_disk(dev)->private_data->usage != 0` serves as a reasonable precondition of function `force_ro_store`.

Please let me know if it makes sense. I am looking forward to your reply.

Best,
Shaobo
