From: Kangjie Lu Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2019 17:16:06 +0000 (-0500) Subject: tty: atmel_serial: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference X-Git-Tag: v4.14.110~32 X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4f49089456e7537c6c2c3596aaabd89d698dbe15;p=users%2Fjedix%2Flinux-maple.git tty: atmel_serial: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference commit c85be041065c0be8bc48eda4c45e0319caf1d0e5 upstream. In case dmaengine_prep_dma_cyclic fails, the fix returns a proper error code to avoid NULL pointer dereference.
