Subject: [PATCH 07/10] IB/hfi1: Fix potential NULL ptr dereference
Date: Thu, 09 Jun 2016 07:51:45 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160609145144.12702.59475.stgit@scvm10.sc.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160609144644.12702.4832.stgit-9QXIwq+3FY+1XWohqUldA0EOCMrvLtNR@public.gmane.org>

From: Tadeusz Struk <tadeusz.struk-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>

This fixes potential NULL ptr dereference because IS_ERR(dd) doesn't
handle NULL. Fix the issue by initializing the pointer with a not NULL
error code.
