Given the NULL pointer deference report at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/79152feb-bcbc-9e3e-e776-13170ae4ef40@vigem.de/

Reported-by: Sven Z?hlsdorf <sven.zuehlsdorf@vigem.de>
And applied this one only in the series in for-6.2/upstream-fixes.

Before applying the rest I'd rather have some external reviews of this
