[PATCH] phy: qcom-qmp-usb: Fix an NULL vs IS_ERR() bug

[Chenyuan Yang]

In qmp_usb_iomap(), one branch returns the result of devm_ioremap(), which
can be NULL. Since IS_ERR() does not catch a NULL pointer,
add an explicit NULL check in qmp_usb_parse_dt_legacy() to prevent
potential dereference issues.

Good catch, but please move the handling of this into the
qmp_usb_iomap() helper so that it returns an error pointer also if
devm_ioremap() fails.

This is not the commit that introduced the issue; this should be:

Fixes: a5d6b1ac56cb ("phy: qcom-qmp-usb: fix memleak on probe deferral")

No, that's not true. NAK.

I'm afraid you're mistaken here. See __devm_ioremap() which can return
NULL.

Uh, you are right, I only checked devm_of_iomap in qmp_usb_iomap().
Anyway, the fix should be different - given function should either
return ERR or NULL, not both, so devm_ioremap return value needs to be
wrapped in ERR_PTR.
