Subject: [bug report] libertas_tf: don't defer firmware loading until start()
Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2019 21:29:02 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190221182900.GA26432@kadam> (raw)

Hello Lubomir Rintel,

This is a semi-automatic email about new static checker warnings.

The patch baa0280f08c7: "libertas_tf: don't defer firmware loading 
until start()" from Feb 20, 2019, leads to the following Smatch 
complaint:

    drivers/net/wireless/marvell/libertas_tf/if_usb.c:256 if_usb_disconnect()
    warn: variable dereferenced before check 'priv' (see line 254)

drivers/net/wireless/marvell/libertas_tf/if_usb.c
   253	
   254		if_usb_reset_device(priv);
                                    ^^^^^
The patch introduces a new dereference (inside the function).

   255	
   256		if (priv)
                    ^^^^
Old code assumes "priv" could be NULL.

   257			lbtf_remove_card(priv);
   258	

regards,
dan carpenter
