Subject: [PATCH] wifi: brcmfmac: Check the return value of of_property_read_string_index
Date: Mon,  6 Jan 2025 13:37:49 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250106103749.5764-1-stefan@codeweavers.com> (raw)

Somewhen between 6.10 and 6.11 the driver started to crash on my
MacBookPro14,3. The property doesn't exist and 'tmp' remains
uninitialized, so we pass a random pointer to devm_kstrdup().

The crash I am getting looks like this:
