[PATCH 3.14 18/77] powerpc: Fix bad NULL pointer check in udbg_uart_getc_poll()
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jan 14 2015 - 02:58:36 EST
3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Anton Blanchard <anton@xxxxxxxxx>
commit cd32e2dcc9de6c27ecbbfc0e2079fb64b42bad5f upstream.
We have some code in udbg_uart_getc_poll() that tries to protect
against a NULL udbg_uart_in, but gets it all wrong.
Found with the LLVM static analyzer (scan-build).
Fixes: 309257484cc1 ("powerpc: Cleanup udbg_16550 and add support for LPC PIO-only UARTs")
