Subject: [PATCH] ARM: mvebu: Add check in coherency.c to prevent null pointer dereference
Date: Sun, 25 Feb 2024 14:04:50 +0800
Message-Id: <20240225060450.53044-1-duoming@zju.edu.cn>
Precedence: bulk

The kzalloc() in armada_375_380_coherency_init() will return
null if the physical memory has run out. As a result, if we
dereference the property pointer, the null pointer dereference
bug will happen.

This patch adds a check to avoid null pointer dereference.

Fixes: 497a92308af8 ("ARM: mvebu: implement L2/PCIe deadlock workaround")
