From: Ian Abbott <abbotti@xxxxxxxxx> commit 7379e6baeddf580d01feca650ec1ad508b6ea8ee upstream. The interrupt handler `pci230_interrupt()` causes a null pointer dereference for a PCI260 card. There is no analog output subdevice for a PCI260. The `dev->write_subdev` subdevice pointer and therefore the `s_ao` subdevice pointer variable will be `NULL` for a PCI260. The following call near the end of the interrupt handler results in the null pointer dereference for a PCI260: comedi_handle_events(dev, s_ao); Fix it by only calling the above function if `s_ao` is valid. Note that the other uses of `s_ao` in the calls `pci230_handle_ao_nofifo(dev, s_ao);` and `pci230_handle_ao_fifo(dev, s_ao);` will never be reached for a PCI260, so they are safe.
