5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Nikita Kiryushin <kiryushin@xxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ccd45faf4973746c4f30ea41eec864e5cf191099 ] If acpi_get_parent() called in acpi_video_dev_register_backlight() fails, for example, because acpi_ut_acquire_mutex() fails inside acpi_get_parent), this can lead to incorrect (uninitialized) acpi_parent handle being passed to acpi_get_pci_dev() for detecting the parent pci device. Check acpi_get_parent() result and set parent device only in case of success. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
