It's pretty trivial to inspect. > Revert "gpio: aspeed: fix a potential NULL pointer dereference" I don't see the problem with this either. There seem to be legit code coming out of umn.edu as well. To me it seems like students getting assigned to fix random NULL pointer dereferences, seems unfair that their first contributions should be punished for what some researcher did. But I would personally like to discuss the ethics of this study with the headmaster of this university. Yours, Linus Walleij
