Subject: [PATCH net] caif: Fix crash due to uninitialized net name-space.
Date: Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:33:51 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1327523631-3480-1-git-send-email-sjur.brandeland@stericsson.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CA+1xoqe+Qa1OByj7z7XzAPG_g9+BmNj9NPZR=_5b_MTEmc9Chw@mail.gmail.com>
net_generic() calls BUG_ON() if called with uninitialized
network name-space. Add check if net is initialized before
calling net_generic(). This fixes the following oops:
