Subject: [PATCH] [libata] scsi: fix Null pointer dereference on disk error
Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2012 16:12:18 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1355386339-11411-1-git-send-email-xtfeng@gmail.com> (raw)

Following oops were observed when disk error happened:

[ 4272.896937] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Unhandled error code
[ 4272.896939] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Result: hostbyte=DID_BAD_TARGET driverbyte=DRIVER_OK

[ 4272.896951] end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 5955239

[ 4291.934235] CPU 9
[ 4291.958301] Pid: 27942, comm: hwinfo ......

ata_scsi_find_dev could return NULL, so ata_scsi_activity_{show,store} should check if atadev is NULL.
