[PATCH] drm/atomic-helper: Validate pointer before dereference

From: Rodrigo Siqueira
Date: Mon Mar 11 2019 - 17:01:28 EST


The function disable_outputs() and
drm_atomic_helper_commit_modeset_enables() tries to retrieve
helper_private from the target CRTC, for dereferencing some operations.
However, the current implementation does not check whether
helper_private is null and, if not, if it has a valid pointer to a dpms
and commit functions. This commit adds pointer validations before
trying to dereference the dpms and commit function.
