dma-debug: Fix check_unmap null pointer dereference
While it's debatable whether or not a NULL device argument to the DMA API functions is valid... since it certainly isn't valid on devices with an IOMMU... dma-debug really shouldn't be dereferencing null pointers either. Guard against that in err_printk and the driver_filter functions. A Fedora rawhide user was seeing this in one of the dvb drivers resulting in an oops on boot. [ A patch has been sent for testing to the driver, but I feel the dma debugging support should be fixed as well. (There's still a pile of legacy garbage in the kernel passing null pointers to dma_{alloc,free}_*. :( ] Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Cc: Joerg Roedel <[email protected]> LKML-Reference: <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
