Added a null check for the bus variable after calling of_match_bus.
This prevents potential null pointer dereference errors in subsequent
code, where bus->count_cells could cause a crash if bus is NULL.

Go read of_match_bus(). It never returns NULL and if somehow it did, we'll BUG() first. > > Signed-off-by: Gyeonggeon Choi <gychoi.dev@gmail.com> > --- > drivers/of/address.c | 2 ++ > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/of/address.c b/drivers/of/address.c > index d669ce25b5f9..85f986d25870 100644 > --- a/drivers/of/address.c > +++ b/drivers/of/address.c > @@ -504,6 +504,8 @@ static u64 __of_translate_address(struct device_node *node, > if (parent == NULL) > return OF_BAD_ADDR; > bus = of_match_bus(parent); > + if (bus == NULL) > + return OF_BAD_ADDR; > > /* Count address cells & copy address locally */ > bus->count_cells(dev, &na, &ns); > -- > 2.39.3 (Apple Git-146) >
