[PATCH] orinoco: do not resgister NULL pm_notifier function

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



With DEBUG_NOTIFIERS it results in

[11330.890966] WARNING: at /home/bor/src/linux-git/kernel/notifier.c:88
notifier_call_chain+0x91/0xa0()
[11330.890977] Hardware name: PORTEGE 4000
[11330.890983] Invalid notifier called! ...

Without DEBUG_NOTIFIERS it most likely crashes on NULL pointer.

This condition is triggered by default config options so it is 2.6.29
material. Patch is intentionally against 2.6.29 base and not against
wireless-next.
