[05/38] Fix pointer dereference before call to pcie_bus_configure_settings

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Oct 11 2011 - 13:03:40 EST


3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Shyam Iyer <shyam.iyer.t@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 5307f6d5fb12fd01f9f321bc4a8fd77e74858647 upstream.

Commit b03e7495a862 ("PCI: Set PCI-E Max Payload Size on fabric")
introduced a potential NULL pointer dereference in calls to
pcie_bus_configure_settings due to attempts to access pci_bus self
variables when the self pointer is NULL.

To correct this, verify that the self pointer in pci_bus is non-NULL
before dereferencing it.
