Subject: [net PATCH] net: phy: qcom: at803x: fix kernel panic with at8031_probe
Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2024 20:06:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240325190621.2665-1-ansuelsmth@gmail.com> (raw)

On reworking and splitting the at803x driver, in splitting function of
at803x PHYs it was added a NULL dereference bug where priv is referenced
before it's actually allocated and then is tried to write to for the
is_1000basex and is_fiber variables in the case of at8031, writing on
the wrong address.

Fix this by correctly setting priv local variable only after
at803x_probe is called and actually allocates priv in the phydev struct.
