[PATCH] platform/x86: wmi: fix potential null pointer dereferences

From: Mattias Jacobsson
Date: Tue Jan 22 2019 - 15:03:46 EST


In the function wmi_dev_match() there are three variables that
potentially can result in a null pointer dereference. Namely:
dev/wblock, driver/wmi_driver, and wmi_driver->id_table.

Check for NULL and return that the driver can't handle the device if any
of these variables would result in a null pointer dereference.

The NULL checks are performed prior to running container_of() for the
variables dev/wblock and driver/wmi_driver.

Fixes: 844af950da94 ("platform/x86: wmi: Turn WMI into a bus driver")
