Subject: [PATCH v2] Input: gpio_keys - fix NULL pointer dereference for dt case
Date: Mon, 20 Aug 2012 15:48:40 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1345488520-3997-1-git-send-email-fabio.estevam@freescale.com> (raw)
Commit 30161f6b2e7d1 (Input: gpio_keys - clean up device tree parser)
introduced the following kernel crash for a dt based kernel:
..
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000004
pgd = 80004000
[00000004] *pgd=00000000

The reason for the crash was due to 'button = &pdata->buttons[i++];'
returning a NULL pointer, and then 'button' was accessed afterwards
without checking for NULL.
Fix this by correctly assigning 'pdata->buttons' and also add a NULL
pointer check for 'button' pointer.

Changes since v1:
- Fix the location of 'button = pdata->buttons'. This fixes the probing of multiple keys.
