[PATCH] media: i2c: mt9t112: fix missing IS_ERR() check before PTR_ERR()
From: Uday Khare
Date: Mon Jul 20 2026 - 07:30:37 EST
In mt9t112_probe(), the -ENOENT check after devm_v4l2_sensor_clk_get() is
missing an IS_ERR() guard.
Without IS_ERR(), PTR_ERR(priv->clk) is executed unconditionally,
including on successful clock lookups where priv->clk points to a valid
struct clk pointer. Calling PTR_ERR() on a valid pointer reinterprets its
address as a signed long integer; the result is arbitrary and leads to an
invalid comparison against -ENOENT.
Fix this by nesting the -ENOENT check inside an IS_ERR() guard block.
