Subject: [2.6 patch] kprobe_exceptions_notify(): fix NULL dereference
Date: Sat, 27 Oct 2007 16:19:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071027141914.GW30533@stusta.de> (raw)
This patch fixes later NULL dereferences spotted by the Coverity
checker.
Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org>

BTW: The avr32 and s390 versions of kprobe_exceptions_notify() are
not touched since they don't contain this check.
