[PATCH 5.10 015/108] net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Correct check for empty list

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

 



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

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

From: Simon Horman <horms@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4c7f3950a9fd53a62b156c0fe7c3a2c43b0ba19b ]

Since commit a3c53be55c95 ("net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Support multiple MDIO
busses") mv88e6xxx_default_mdio_bus() has checked that the
return value of list_first_entry() is non-NULL.

This appears to be intended to guard against the list chip->mdios being
empty.  However, it is not the correct check as the implementation of
list_first_entry is not designed to return NULL for empty lists.

Instead, use list_first_entry_or_null() which does return NULL if the
list is empty.

Flagged by Smatch.
Compile tested only.
