[PATCH] USB: OHCI: Check the overrides pointer for NULL in ohci_init_driver()

From: Tomasz Figa
Date: Sat Sep 28 2013 - 13:56:47 EST


A series of commit starting at

50a97e059b USB: OHCI: make ohci-exynos a separate driver

and ending at

b8ad5c3706 USB: OHCI: make ohci-pxa27x a separate driver

introduced the concept of separate OHCI drivers for particular
controllers. Respective drivers need to call ohci_init_driver() to
initialize hc_driver struct with generic data and to certain extent
with platform specific overrides through ohci_driver_overrides struct
passed as second argument to this function. However the code does not
check if the ohci_driver_overrides struct pointer is non-NULL, which
leads for a NULL pointer dereference for drivers that do not need any
overrides.

This patch fixes the problem by dereferencing the passed pointer to
ohci_driver_overrides struct only if it is non-NULL.
