3.16.7-ckt23 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
---8<------------------------------------------------------------
From: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 20b08e1a793d898f0f13040d5418ee0955f678cf upstream.
mdiobus_alloc() might return NULL, but its return value is not
checked in mdio_mux_init(). This could potentially lead to a NULL
pointer dereference. Fix it by checking the return value
Fixes: 0ca2997d1452 ("netdev/of/phy: Add MDIO bus multiplexer support.")
