[PATCH][next] drm/atomic: avoid null pointer dereference on pointer crtc

From: Colin King
Date: Mon Nov 16 2020 - 06:03:49 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Since moving to the new debug helper functions we now have a debug message
that dereferences crtc to print a kernel debug message when crtc is null
and so this debug message will now cause a null pointer dereference. Since
this is a debug message it probably is just simplest to fix this by just
removing the debug message altogether.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference after null check")
Fixes: e3aae683e861 ("drm: convert drm_atomic_uapi.c to new debug helpers")
