From f6b6f52b583003ad443d5709c56b8858466c4268 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lee Jones Date: Thu, 9 May 2013 13:50:55 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] serial: pl011: protect attribute read from NULL platform data struct It's completely feasible that platform data will be empty i.e. when booting with Device Tree with no device AUXDATA.
