From fc96e661a57d5e4de01503d460116cce7ced7e70 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2014 13:17:41 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] misc: vexpress: fix error handling vexpress_syscfg_regmap_init() This function should be returning an ERR_PTR() on failure instead of NULL. Also there is a use after free bug if regmap_init() fails because we free "func" and then dereference doing the return.
