[PATCH] tty: serial: jsm: add checks against NULL pointer dereference

From: Zheyu Ma
Date: Thu Jun 03 2021 - 02:43:25 EST


In function 'neo_intr', the driver uses 'ch->ch_equeue' and
'ch->ch_reuque'. These two pointers are initialized in 'jsm_tty_open',
but the interrupt handler 'neo_intr' has been registered in the probe
progress. If 'jsm_tty_open' has not been called at this time, it will
cause null pointer dereference.

Once the driver registers the interrupt handler, the driver should be
ready to handle it.

Fix this by checking whether it is a null pointer.

This log reveals it:
