From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Fri, 20 Jul 2012 11:11:57 +0000 Subject: [patch] [media] dib8000: move dereference after check for NULL Message-Id: <20120720111157.GA22245@elgon.mountain> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Cc: Patrick Boettcher , Olivier Grenie , linux-media@vger.kernel.org, kernel-janitors@vger.kernel.org My static checker complains that we dereference "state" inside the call to fft_to_mode() before checking for NULL. The comments say that it is possible for "state" to be NULL so I have moved the dereference after the check.
