4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 0f2d2b2736b08dafa3bde31d048750fbc8df3a31 ] Since mlxsw_sp_fib_create() and mlxsw_sp_mr_table_create() use ERR_PTR macro to propagate int err through return of a pointer, the return value is not NULL in case of failure. So if one of the calls fails, one of vr->fib4, vr->fib6 or vr->mr4_table is not NULL and mlxsw_sp_vr_is_used wrongly assumes that vr is in use which leads to crash like following one: [ 1293.949291] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000000006c9 [ 1293.952729] IP: mlxsw_sp_mr_table_flush+0x15/0x70 [mlxsw_spectrum] Fix this by using local variables to hold the pointers and set vr->* only in case everything went fine.
