[PATCH] can: c_can: Use platform id data when OF data is absent
From: Pengpeng Hou
Date: Wed Jun 24 2026 - 01:50:07 EST
The platform driver keeps controller metadata in both the OF match table
and the platform id table. Probe reads the metadata with
device_get_match_data(), which does not fall back to platform id-table
driver_data.
When the device is matched through the platform id table, drvdata can
therefore be NULL before it is dereferenced for msg_obj_num and the
controller type. Fall back to platform_get_device_id() when firmware
match data is not available.
