coresight: etm3x: Smatch: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
Based on the following report from Smatch tool, make sure we have a valid drvdata before we dereference it to find the real dev. The patch 21d26b905c05: "coresight: etm: Clean up device specific data" from May 22, 2019, leads to the following Smatch complaint: ./drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm3x.c:460 etm_get_trace_id() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'drvdata' (see line 458) ./drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm3x.c 457 int trace_id = -1; 458 struct device *etm_dev = drvdata->csdev->dev.parent; ^^^^^^^^^ New dereference 459 460 if (!drvdata) ^^^^^^^^ Checked too late. Delete the check? 461 goto out; 462 Cc: Mathieu Poirier <mathieu.poirier@linaro.org> Cc: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Suzuki K Poulose <suzuki.poulose@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Mathieu Poirier <mathieu.poirier@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20190621175205.24551-2-mathieu.poirier@linaro.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
