Subject: [PATCH] of: Don't allow __of_attached_node_sysfs() without CONFIG_SYSFS
Date: Fri, 20 Aug 2021 15:47:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210820144722.169226-1-maz@kernel.org> (raw)

Trying to boot without SYSFS, but with OF_DYNAMIC quickly
results in a crash:

[    0.088460] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000070

While not having sysfs isn't a very common option these days,
it is still expected that such configuration would work.

Paper over it by bailing out from __of_attach_node_sysfs() if
CONFIG_SYSFS isn't enabled.
