[PATCH net-next v2 1/3] net: phy: xgmiitorgmii: Check phy_driver ready before accessing

From: Brandon Maier
Date: Tue Jun 26 2018 - 13:52:06 EST


Since a phy_device is added to the global mdio_bus list during
phy_device_register(), but a phy_device's phy_driver doesn't get
attached until phy_probe(). It's possible of_phy_find_device() in
xgmiitorgmii will return a valid phy with a NULL phy_driver. Leading to
a NULL pointer access during the memcpy().

Fixes this Oops:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
pgd = c0004000
