This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled PCI: endpoint: Clean up error handling in vpci_scan_bus() to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: pci-endpoint-clean-up-error-handling-in-vpci_scan_bu.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 55eedca768607589e75eed9912ce271e85355472 Author: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jun 10 12:33:39 2024 +0300 PCI: endpoint: Clean up error handling in vpci_scan_bus() [ Upstream commit 8e0f5a96c534f781e8c57ca30459448b3bfe5429 ] Smatch complains about inconsistent NULL checking in vpci_scan_bus(): drivers/pci/endpoint/functions/pci-epf-vntb.c:1024 vpci_scan_bus() error: we previously assumed 'vpci_bus' could be null (see line 1021) Instead of printing an error message and then crashing we should return an error code and clean up. Also the NULL check is reversed so it prints an error for success instead of failure.
