[PATCH 4.5 203/238] mmc: atmel-mci: Check pdata for NULL before dereferencing it at DMA config

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

 



4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Brent Taylor <motobud@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 93c77d2999b09f2084b033ea6489915e0104ad9c upstream.

Using an at91sam9g20ek development board with DTS configuration may trigger
a kernel panic because of a NULL pointer dereference exception, while
configuring DMA. Let's fix this by adding a check for pdata before
dereferencing it.
