From ecc87eed7beeb50c0be0b73322d62135277ea2b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Shevchenko Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2015 16:51:11 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] device property: fix potential NULL pointer dereference In device_add_property_set() we check pset parameter for a NULL, but few lines later we do a pointer arithmetic without check that will crash kernel in the set_secondary_fwnode(). Here we check if pset parameter is NULL and return immediately.
