Subject: [PATCH] i2c: davinci: Fix null dereference bug in i2c_davinci_calc_clk_dividers
Date: Sat, 23 Apr 2011 13:31:35 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1303579895-9441-1-git-send-email-michael.williamson@criticallink.com> (raw)

The davinci-i2c bus driver currently supports being probed with a NULL
platform_data structure by using a default configuration when none is
provided.  However, the i2c_davinci_calc_clk_dividers does not
check the provided platform_data for NULL prior to using it, so
the support is incomplete.

Rather than have each runtime call check for NULL and avoid future
problems, copy a pointer to the default data to the device structure
during the probe.  This should be OK, as the information in this
structure is not modified by the driver.

Tested on a MityDSP-L138 module (OMAP-L138 based SOM).
