[PATCH] thermal: Fix a NULL pointer dereference

From: Subbaraman Narayanamurthy
Date: Fri Sep 03 2021 - 20:34:40 EST


of_parse_thermal_zones() parses the thermal-zones node and registers a
thermal_zone device for each subnode. However, if a thermal zone is
consuming a thermal sensor and that thermal sensor device hasn't probed
yet, an attempt to set trip_point_*_temp for that thermal zone device
can cause a NULL pointer dereference. Fix it.

console:/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone87 # echo 120000 > trip_point_0_temp
...
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000020
