[PATCH 3.4 031/177] regmap: debugfs: fix possbile NULL pointer dereference

[lizf]

From: Xiubo Li <Li.Xiubo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.4.106-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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


commit 2c98e0c1cc6b8e86f1978286c3d4e0769ee9d733 upstream.

If 'map->dev' is NULL and there will lead dev_name() to be NULL pointer
dereference. So before dev_name(), we need to have check of the map->dev
pionter.

We also should make sure that the 'name' pointer shouldn't be NULL for
debugfs_create_dir(). So here using one default "dummy" debugfs name when
the 'name' pointer and 'map->dev' are both NULL.

[lizf: Backported to 3.4: dev_name() is passed to debugfs_create_dir() in 3.4]
