[PATCH v2 12/13] extcon: extcon-max8997: check if pdata exists

From: Robert Baldyga
Date: Mon Apr 14 2014 - 07:51:10 EST


This patch adds check if pdata is NULL, to avoid NULL pointer dereference
when platform data is not available. After this changes, in described
situation driver will be configured with default values.
