Subject: [stable:PATCH v5.4.188] KVM: arm64: Check arm64_get_bp_hardening_data() didn't return NULL
Date: Fri,  8 Apr 2022 18:22:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220408172219.4152131-1-james.morse@arm.com> (raw)

Will reports that with CONFIG_EXPERT=y and CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR=n,
the kernel dereferences a NULL pointer during boot:

In this configuration arm64_get_bp_hardening_data() returns NULL.
Add a check in kvm_get_hyp_vector().
