6.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jacky Huang <ychuang3@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit acd09ac253b5de8fd79fc61a482ee19154914c7a upstream. The pdev->dev.of_node can be NULL if the "serial" node is absent. Add a NULL check to return an error in such cases.
