[PATCH 5.10/5.15/6.1/6.6/6.12] agp/amd64: Fix broken error propagation in agp_amd64_probe()

[Alexander Martyniuk <alexevgmart@gmail.com>]

From: Mingyu Wang <25181214217@stu.xidian.edu.cn>

commit b08472db93b1ccff84a7adec5779d47f0e9d3a30 upstream.

A NULL pointer dereference was observed in the AMD64 AGP driver when
running in a virtualized environment (e.g. qemu/kvm) without a physical
AMD northbridge. The crash occurs in amd64_fetch_size() when attempting
to dereference the pointer returned by node_to_amd_nb(0).

The root cause of this crash is broken error propagation in
agp_amd64_probe(): When no AMD northbridges are found, cache_nbs()
correctly returns -ENODEV. However, the probe function erroneously
checks the return value against exactly -1, rather than < 0.

As a result, the hardware absence error is masked, allowing the driver
to improperly proceed with initialization. It eventually calls
agp_add_bridge(), which invokes amd64_fetch_size(). Since the hardware
does not exist, node_to_amd_nb(0) returns NULL, leading to a General
Protection Fault (GPF) when accessing its ->misc member.

Fix the issue by correcting the error check in agp_amd64_probe() to
abort properly when cache_nbs() returns any negative error code. This
prevents the driver from erroneously proceeding without hardware, thereby
avoiding the subsequent NULL pointer dereference at its source.
