[PATCH 4.4 077/163] pwm: brcmstb: Fix check of devm_ioremap_resource() return code

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

 



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

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

From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vz@xxxxxxxxx>

commit c5857e3f94ab2719dfac649a146cb5dd6f21fcf3 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.
