[PATCH] mtd: nand: fix NULL pointer dereference in of_get_nand_ecc_algo

From: RafaÅ MiÅecki
Date: Tue Apr 26 2016 - 14:36:35 EST


Our array nand_ecc_algos doesn't specify mappings for all available
enum nand_ecc_algo values. The one missing there is NAND_ECC_UNKNOWN
as this value is reserved for algorithm not being specified at all.
It means we have to be careful when iterating this array and handle
NULL values.

Hi Boris,

Sorry for this crash in nand subsystem :( If you think it's OK you may
pick this patch as a fixup for
c6e002a7ca9f ("mtd: nand: add support for "nand-ecc-algo" DT property")
