[PATCH 4.14 086/237] orinoco: avoid assertion in case of NULL pointer

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

 



From: Aditya Pakki <pakki001@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c705f9fc6a1736dcf6ec01f8206707c108dca824 ]

In ezusb_init, if upriv is NULL, the code crashes. However, the caller
in ezusb_probe can handle the error and print the failure message.
The patch replaces the BUG_ON call to error return.
