[PATCH 0/1] EDAC/altera: Guard against NULL of_node

[Dinh Nguyen]

Hi EDAC maintainers,

I wanted to explain the reason why I think this patch doesn't need a
Fixes tag. The way the Altera EDAC is written there are many instances
of the driver referencing the of_node, which is why they are flagged in
many sashiko reviews.

This patch checks for those NULL of_node in the probe functions using
dev_of_node() so we don't have to guard the of_node in all the other
functions.

The reason we don't need the Fixes tag is because this system is
supposed to run with CONFIG_OF enabled. The system would fail way
before it gets to this driver if an of_node is not found. Thus I don't
see a need for a Fixes tag but the guard should be in place for
completeness.

Thanks,
