[PATCH 6.1 108/379] hwmon: (axi-fan-control) Fix possible NULL pointer dereference

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

 



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

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

From: Dragos Bogdan <dragos.bogdan@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2a5b3370a1d9750eca325292e291c8c7cb8cf2e0 ]

axi_fan_control_irq_handler(), dependent on the private
axi_fan_control_data structure, might be called before the hwmon
device is registered. That will cause an "Unable to handle kernel
NULL pointer dereference" error.

Fixes: 8412b410fa5e ("hwmon: Support ADI Fan Control IP")
