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
