Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: wmi: fix potential null pointer dereferences
Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2019 21:03:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190122200302.19861-1-2pi@mok.nu> (raw)

In the function wmi_dev_match() there are three variables that
potentially can result in a null pointer dereference. Namely:
dev/wblock, driver/wmi_driver, and wmi_driver->id_table.

Check for NULL and return that the driver can't handle the device if any
of these variables would result in a null pointer dereference.

The NULL checks are performed prior to running container_of() for the
variables dev/wblock and driver/wmi_driver.

Fixes: 844af950da94 ("platform/x86: wmi: Turn WMI into a bus driver")
