Hello there,

>yup, looks like we can drop the two pipe<0 checks.

Righto.

>Care to send a patch?

Oh dear. My success rate with patches is near zero. Maybe something
like this might be suitable:

return -EINVAL;
}
--- 542,548 ----
struct msm_drm_private *priv = dev->dev_private;
struct drm_crtc *crtc;

DRM_ERROR("Invalid crtc %d\n", pipe);

}
***************
*** 564,570 ****
struct drm_crtc *crtc;
struct drm_encoder *encoder;

! if (pipe < 0 || pipe >= priv->num_crtcs)
return 0;

crtc = priv->crtcs[pipe];
--- 564,570 ----
struct drm_crtc *crtc;
struct drm_encoder *encoder;

! if (pipe >= priv->num_crtcs)
return 0;

crtc = priv->crtcs[pipe];

Feel free to mess this tentative patch about in any way you see fit.
