If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: He Zhe commit 277fcdb2cfee38ccdbe07e705dbd4896ba0c9930 upstream. log_buf_len_setup does not check input argument before passing it to simple_strtoull. The argument would be a NULL pointer if "log_buf_len", without its value, is set in command line and thus causes the following panic.
