Subject: [PATCH] appletalk: Correctly handle return value of register_snap_client
Date: Wed, 6 Mar 2019 15:27:40 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190306072740.18760-1-yuehaibing@huawei.com> (raw)

From: YueHaibing <yuehaibing@huawei.com>

register_snap_client may return NULL, all the callers
check it, but only print a warning. This will result in
NULL pointer dereference in unregister_snap_client and other
places.

It has always been used like this since v2.6
