There are devices out there which are PCI Hot-plug controllers with
compaq PCI IDs, but are not bridges, hence have pdev->subordinate
NULL. But cpqphp expects the pointer to be non-NULL.
Add a check to the probe function to avoid oopses like:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
00000050
IP: [<
f82e3c41>] cpqhpc_probe+0x951/0x1120 [cpqphp]
*pdpt =
0000000033779001 *pde =
0000000000000000
...
The device here was:
00:0b.0 PCI Hot-plug controller [0804]: Compaq Computer Corporation PCI Hotplug Controller [0e11:a0f7] (rev 11)
Subsystem: Compaq Computer Corporation Device [0e11:a2f8]
