Subject: [PATCH v3] serial: pch_uart: potential dereference of null pointer
Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2021 22:14:54 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211216141454.423333-1-jiasheng@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)

The return value of dma_alloc_coherent() needs to be checked.
To avoid dereference of null pointer in case of the failure of alloc.
Signed-off-by: Jiasheng Jiang <jiasheng@iscas.ac.cn>

Changelog:

v2 -> v3

*Change 1. Remove dev_err.
*Change 2. Change the return type of pch_request_dma to int.
*Change 3. Return -ENOMEM when dma_alloc_coherent() failed and 0 the
others.
*Change 4. Check return value of dma_alloc_coherent().
