Subject: [PATCH] clk: Do not dereference potential NULL pointer
Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2013 13:03:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1383221036-26890-1-git-send-email-treding@nvidia.com> (raw)
A NULL pointer may be passed to _clk_register() for the dev parameter
(via clk_register()). Make sure not to dereference it before checking
that it's valid.
