Subject: [PATCH] mailbox: xgene-slimpro: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2018 21:07:15 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180719020715.GA14452@embeddedor.com> (raw)
There is a potential execution path in which function
platform_get_resource() returns NULL. If this happens,
we will end up having a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by adding a sanity check in order to avoid a
NULL pointer dereference.
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
