Subject: [patch] mmc: toshsd: move dereference below check for NULL
Date: Sat, 15 Nov 2014 18:56:41 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141115185641.GA6530@mwanda> (raw)

We check for NULL pointers after dereferencing so it's too late.  Oddly
enough, Smatch misses this code but complains about the caller passing
NULL pointers to this function:

	drivers/mmc/host/toshsd.c:389 toshsd_irq()
	error: we previously assumed 'host->cmd' could be null (see line 349)
