Indeed something like
if (!pipe_ctx)
return false;
seems the right thing here.
Harry, Roman , your opinion ?

There is a check just before for-loop that should ensure pipe_ctx is not null:
/* Only supports single display */
if (context->stream_count != 1)
return false;
To remove the subject warning - we can rather add an assert:
assert(pipe_ctx);
Thanks,

The check before alone is not enough for a case where there is another
bug introduced so that
context->stream_count is not in sync with actual number of streams
across entire resource_context.
At least assert indeed should be there.
