From cfca31ce789963c0dd6ca2e9cc13b90cc2802fbd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Thu, 27 May 2010 14:32:24 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH 2/11] drivers/watchdog: Eliminate a NULL pointer dereference At the point of the call to dev_err, wm8350 is NULL. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @r exists@ expression E,E1; identifier f; statement S1,S2,S3; @@ if ((E == NULL && ...) || ...) { ... when != if (...)
