Subject: [EDT][PATCh 1/1]mdfld_dsi_pkg_sender.c : Fix Possible NULL Pointer dereference

EP-AA9D1F29B02341529D96C06444D8471D

Hi,

There is NULL pointer check for sender after dereferencing sender in __read_panel_data as below:-
struct drm_device *dev = sender->dev;
...
if (!sender || !data || !len)

And from codeflow

mdfld_dsi_get_panel_status --> mdfld_dsi_read_mcs --> __read_panel_data
In mdfld_dsi_get_panel_status & mdfld_dsi_read_mcs there is already a same check.

-----------Cut------------
if (!sender || !data || !len) {
DRM_ERROR("Invalid parameters\n");
return -EINVAL;
}
return __read_panel_data(sender, MIPI_DSI_DCS_READ, &cmd, 1,
data, len, hs);
--------------------Cut-----------
So either we can remove this check from __read_panel_data ,
or if we want to have defensive code then below change should be included.
