[PATCH v1] Input: atlas - Check ACPI_COMPANION() against NULL

From: Rafael J. Wysocki

Date: Tue May 12 2026 - 12:36:27 EST


From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

Every platform driver can be forced to match a device that doesn't match
its list of device IDs because of device_match_driver_override(), so
platform drivers that rely on the existence of a device's ACPI companion
object need to verify its presence.

Accordingly, add a requisite ACPI_COMPANION() check against NULL to the
atlas_btns driver.

Fixes: b8303880b641 ("Input: atlas - convert ACPI driver to a platform one")
