Subject: [PATCH] i2c: designware-baytrail: fix potential null pointer dereference on dev
Date: Mon, 20 Mar 2017 11:51:23 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170320115123.31536-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
The assignment to addr requires a call to get_sem_addr that dereferences
dev, however, this dereference occurs before a null pointer check on dev.
Move this assignment after the null check on dev to avoid a potential null
pointer dereference.
Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1419700 ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: fd476fa22a1f432 ("i2c: designware-baytrail: Add support for cherrytrail")
