From 96cf3dedc491d2f1f66cc26217f2b06b0c7b6797 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Krzysztof Kozlowski Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2014 11:03:33 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mfd: max8925: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference on i2c_new_dummy error During probe the driver allocates dummy I2C devices for RTC and ADC with i2c_new_dummy() but it does not check the return value of this calls. In case of error (i2c_new_device(): memory allocation failure or I2C address cannot be used) this function returns NULL which is later used by i2c_unregister_device(). If i2c_new_dummy() fails for RTC or ADC devices, fail also the probe for main MFD driver.
