[PATCH] acpi, nfit: fix register dimm error handling

From: Toshi Kani
Date: Fri Feb 02 2018 - 15:15:17 EST


A NULL pointer reference kernel bug was observed when
acpi_nfit_add_dimm() called in acpi_nfit_register_dimms()
failed. This error path does not set nfit_mem->nvdimm, but
the 2nd list_for_each_entry() loop in the function assumes
it's always set. Add a check to nfit_mem->nvdimm.
