[PATCH 4.4 21/44] drm/msm: Fix null pointer dereference on pointer edp
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Oct 25 2021 - 15:16:29 EST
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 2133c4fc8e1348dcb752f267a143fe2254613b34 upstream.
The initialization of pointer dev dereferences pointer edp before
edp is null checked, so there is a potential null pointer deference
issue. Fix this by only dereferencing edp after edp has been null
checked.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: ab5b0107ccf3 ("drm/msm: Initial add eDP support in msm drm driver (v5)")
