Subject: [PATCH v1] platform/surface: surfacepro3_button: Check ACPI_COMPANION()
Date: Tue, 12 May 2026 18:30:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <23119222.EfDdHjke4D@rafael.j.wysocki> (raw)

From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Every platform driver can be forced to match a device that doesn't match
its list of device IDs because of device_match_driver_override(), so
platform drivers that rely on the existence of a device's ACPI companion
object need to verify its presence.

Accordingly, add a requisite ACPI_COMPANION() check against NULL to the
surfacepro3_button driver.

Fixes: d913a5a12b40 ("platform/surface: surfacepro3_button: Convert to a platform driver")
