[PATCH RESEND] drm/sti: avoid potential dereference of error pointers

[PATCH RESEND] drm/sti: avoid potential dereference of error pointers

[Ma Ke]

The return value of drm_atomic_get_crtc_state() needs to be
checked. To avoid use of error pointer 'crtc_state' in case
of the failure.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: dec92020671c ("drm: Use the state pointer directly in planes atomic_check")

Hi,

I probably went a bit fast on the commit message.  It seems to me that
the Fixes line would be probably better with below one instead.

Fixes: dd86dc2f9ae1 ("drm/sti: implement atomic_check for the planes")

The same fix is actually necessary for all planes (cursor / gdp / hqvdp),
which is related to the same original commit.  Hence sti_cursor/sti_gdp
and sti_hqvdp.

Would you be ok to have those 3 fixes within a commit ?

Regards,
Alain

Hi，

I appreciate your guidance regarding the modification of the Fixes tag. As 
your observation, I have also identified the additional instance
(sti_hqvdp_atomic_check) where a similar issue exists, necessitating the 
same patch. I have recognized the problem and was in the process of 
reporting it. To prevent any confusion and ensure accurate reporting, I 
have updated the patch already submitted as patch v2. The issue in 
sti_hqvdp_atomic_check has also been reported, and I kindly request you to 
review it.(I am not very familiar with how to combine the reporting of 
vulnerabilities in multiple functions, so to avoid unnecessary errors or 
confusion, I reported them one by one. Hope for your understanding.) Thank 
you for your prompt response. Your assistance is invaluable to me.

Best regards,
Ma Ke
