typec_register_partner() does not guarantee partner registration to always succeed. In the event of failure, port->partner is set to the error value or NULL. Given that port->partner validity is not checked, this results in the following crash: [17514.377076][ T275] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000003c0 [17514.378270][ T275] pc : run_state_machine+0x1bc8/0x1c08 [17514.378286][ T275] lr : run_state_machine+0x1b90/0x1c08 ..
