[PATCH] power: supply: bq2415x: check for NULL acpi_id to avoid null pointer dereference
From: Colin King
Date: Fri Jan 20 2017 - 08:26:32 EST
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
acpi_match_device can potentially return NULL, so it is prudent to
check if acpi_id is null before it is dereferenced. Add a check
and an error message to indicate the failure.
