[PATCH] clk: check ops pointer on clock register

From: Jerome Brunet
Date: Mon Dec 18 2017 - 12:00:28 EST


Nothing really prevents a provider from (trying to) register a clock
without providing the clock ops structure.

We do check the individual fields before using them, but not the
structure pointer itself. This may have the usual nasty consequences when
the pointer is dereferenced, mostly likely when checking one the field
during the initialization.

This is fixed by returning an error on clock register if the ops pointer
is NULL

Fixes: b2476490ef11 ("clk: introduce the common clock framework")

Mike, Stephen,

I'm not really sure what the Fixes tag should here. From what I could
see, we never checked the ops pointer before using it since the
beginning of CCF.

Regards
Jerome
