From 89f3f35620c7f244880485de11079cb4d98ed604 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" Date: Tue, 5 Dec 2017 11:46:28 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] drm/fb-helper: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference fb_helper is being dereferenced before it is null checked, hence there is a potential null pointer dereference. Fix this by moving the pointer dereference after fb_helper has been null checked. This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
