From 0dad3a3014a0b9e72521ff44f17e0054f43dcdea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Mon, 26 Dec 2016 22:58:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86/mce/AMD: Make the init code more robust If mce_device_init() fails then the mce device pointer is NULL and the AMD mce code happily dereferences it. Add a sanity check.
