[PATCH] nvme: Fix nvme_get/set_features() with a NULL result pointer

From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Wed Aug 24 2016 - 06:52:31 EST


nvme_set_features() callers seem to expect that passing NULL as the
result pointer is acceptable. Teach nvme_set_features() not to try to
write to the NULL address.

For symmetry, make the same change to nvme_get_features(), despite the
fact that all current callers pass a valid result pointer.

I assume that this bug hasn't been reported in practice because
the callers that pass NULL are all in the SCSI translation layer
and no one uses the relevant operations.
