[PATCH] drivers:of: Add null check for bus in of_match_bus
Posted by Gyeonggeon Choi 1 year, 8 months ago
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.
