[PATCH V2] drm/tegra: fix a possible null pointer dereference

From: Huai-Yuan Liu
Date: Sun Jun 02 2024 - 04:46:35 EST


In malidp_tegra_crtc_reset, new memory is allocated with kzalloc, but
no check is performed. Before calling __drm_atomic_helper_crtc_reset,
mw_state should be checked to prevent possible null pointer dereference.

Fixes: b7e0b04ae450 ("drm/tegra: Convert to using __drm_atomic_helper_crtc_reset() for reset.")

V2:
* In patch V2, we call __drm_atomic_helper_crtc_reset(crtc, NULL) when
state is null.
Thanks to Thierry Reding for helpful suggestion.
