Subject: [PATCH 4.9 02/32] usbnet: ipheth: fix potential null pointer dereference in ipheth_carrier_set
Date: Thu,  2 May 2019 17:20:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190502143315.648326898@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190502143314.649935114@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva <garsilva@embeddedor.com>

commit 61c59355e0154a938b28710dfa6c1d8be2ddcefa upstream.

_dev_ is being dereferenced before it is null checked, hence there
is a potential null pointer dereference.

Fix this by moving the pointer dereference after _dev_ has been null
checked.
