From 6ae645d5fa385f3787bf1723639cd907fe5865e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marek Szyprowski Date: Mon, 9 May 2016 09:31:47 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Input: max8997-haptic - fix NULL pointer dereference NULL pointer derefence happens when booting with DTB because the platform data for haptic device is not set in supplied data from parent MFD device. The MFD device creates only platform data (from Device Tree) for itself, not for haptic child.
