Subject: V4L/DVB (3488): Snd_cx88_create: don't dereference NULL core
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=31dcbf994b9eda784c620c8caa3a9dc67a9d0045;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

V4L/DVB (3488): Snd_cx88_create: don't dereference NULL core

If the call to cx88_core_get returns a NULL value, it is dereferenced
by cx88_reset, and perhaps by cx88_core_put.  Spotted by the Coverity
checker.
