[PATCH] rtc: ac100: Fix ac100 determine rate bug

From: Philipp Rossak
Date: Mon Feb 12 2018 - 16:07:34 EST


This patch fixes a bug, that prevents the Allwinner A83T and the A80
from a successful boot. You can find the shortend trace below:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
00000000
pgd = (ptrval)
[00000000] *pgd=00000000
Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] SMP ARM
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0 PID: 49 Comm: kworker/0:1 Not tainted 4.15.0-10190-gb89e32ccd1be #2
Hardware name: Allwinner sun8i Family
Workqueue: events deferred_probe_work_func
PC is at clk_hw_get_rate+0x0/0x34
LR is at ac100_clkout_determine_rate+0x48/0x19c

[ ... ]

(clk_hw_get_rate) from (ac100_clkout_determine_rate+0x48/0x19c)
(ac100_clkout_determine_rate) from (clk_core_set_rate_nolock+0x3c/0x1a0)

(clk_set_rate) from (of_clk_set_defaults+0x200/0x364)
(of_clk_set_defaults) from (platform_drv_probe+0x18/0xb0)

To fix that bug, we first check if the return of the
clk_hw_get_parent_by_index is non zero. If it is zero we skip that
clock parent.
