Subject: [PATCH][serial-next][V2] serial-uartlite: fix null pointer dereference on pointer port
Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2018 09:43:23 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181113094323.27934-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Pointer port is dereferenced on port->private_data when assigning pointer
pdata before port is null checked, leading to a potential null pointer
dereference.  Fix this by assigning pdata after the null pointer check on
port.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1475434 ("Dereference before null check")

Fixes: 3b209d253e7f ("serial-uartlite: Do not use static struct uart_driver out of probe()")
