From: Tomasz Figa <t.figa@samsung.com> Date: Fri, 24 May 2013 22:55:35 +0000 (-0700) Subject: drivers/rtc/rtc-max8998.c: check for pdata presence before dereferencing X-Git-Tag: v3.10-rc3~12^2~2 X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=43c523bff7c3b47506d536c10637be8399dfd85f;p=users%2Fjedix%2Flinux-maple.git drivers/rtc/rtc-max8998.c: check for pdata presence before dereferencing Currently the driver can crash with a NULL pointer dereference if no pdata is provided, despite of successful registration of the MFD part. This patch fixes the problem by adding a NULL check before dereferencing the pdata pointer.
