Subject: [19/27] SCSI: scsi_lib: fix potential NULL dereference
Date: Wed, 07 Dec 2011 08:54:52 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111207165602.002157755@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20111207165611.GA19872@kroah.com>
2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com>
commit 03b147083a2f9a2a3fbbd2505fa88ffa3c6ab194 upstream.
Stanse found a potential NULL dereference in scsi_kill_request.
Instead of triggering BUG() in 'if (unlikely(cmd == NULL))' branch,
the kernel will Oops earlier on cmd dereference.
Move the dereferences after the if.
