[PATCH 3.8 085/133] mfd: max77693: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference on i2c_new_dummy error

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Apr 22 2014 - 16:37:55 EST


3.8.13.22 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Krzysztof Kozlowski <k.kozlowski@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ad09dd6a1f5d6244bd89314015af506ba7f9810a upstream.

During probe the driver allocates dummy I2C devices for MUIC and haptic
with i2c_new_dummy() but it does not check the return value of this
calls.

In case of error (i2c_new_device(): memory allocation failure or I2C
address cannot be used) this function returns NULL which is later used
by devm_regmap_init_i2c() and i2c_unregister_device().

If i2c_new_dummy() fails for MUIC or haptic devices, fail also the probe
for main MFD driver.
