If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 9b52d55f4f0e2bb9a34abbcf99e05e17f1b3b281 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vz@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 6 Mar 2016 03:21:52 +0200 Subject: crypto: atmel - fix checks of error code returned by devm_ioremap_resource() From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vz@xxxxxxxxx> commit 9b52d55f4f0e2bb9a34abbcf99e05e17f1b3b281 upstream. The change fixes potential oops while accessing iomem on invalid address, if devm_ioremap_resource() fails due to some reason. The devm_ioremap_resource() function returns ERR_PTR() and never returns NULL, which makes useless a following check for NULL.
