Obviously this will avoid a null pointer dereference. But you have to also explain why this change is correct. If it's good enough to just look at the capabilities of the DRM device (not the upstream bridge) on PPC and ia64, why not do that everywhere and forget about the bridge completely? > pos = pci_pcie_cap(root); > if (!pos) > return -EINVAL; > > -- > Lucas Kannebley Tavares > Software Engineer > IBM Linux Technology Center > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
