The patch titled mtd: physmap: fix NULL pointer dereference in error path has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mtd-physmap-fix-null-pointer-dereference-in-error-path.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: mtd: physmap: fix NULL pointer dereference in error path From: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit e480814f138cd5d78a8efe397756ba6b6518fdb6 ("[MTD] [MAPS] physmap: fix wrong free and del_mtd_{partition,device}") introduces a NULL pointer dereference in physmap_flash_remove when called from the error path in physmap_flash_probe (if map_probe failed). Call del_mtd_{partition,device} only if info->cmtd was not NULL.
