Subject: [2.6 patch] drivers/rtc/rtc-rs5c372.c: fix a NULL dereference
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2006 15:21:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061117142159.GY31879@stusta.de> (raw)
The correct order is: NULL check before dereference
This was a guaranteed NULL dereference with debugging enabled since
rs5c372_sysfs_show_osc() does actually pass NULL...
Spotted by the Coverity checker.
