[PATCH] mm: Check NULL pointer Dereference in mm/filemap.c

From: wzt . wzt
Date: Mon Jul 26 2010 - 04:25:53 EST


mapping->a_ops->direct_IO() is not checked, if it's a NULL pointer,
that will casue an oops. pagecache_write_begin/end is exported to
other functions, so they need to check null pointer before use them.
