Subject: [PATCH] video: fbdev: sm501fb: fix potential null pointer dereference on fbi
Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2017 17:32:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171110173231.24598-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
The pointer fbi is dereferenced with par = fbi->par before there is a
null check on fbi, hence there is a potential null pointer dereference
on a null par. Fix this by moving the dereference after the null
pointer check.
Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1461301 ("Dereference before null check")
