From 1e8ba6fba5050ec11bba90c8622aa2ed95ff711f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2007 00:54:42 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] kvm: fix vcpu freeing bug vcpu_load() can return NULL and it sometimes does in failure paths (for example when the userspace ABI version is too old) - causing a preemption count underflow in the ->vcpu_free() later on. So check for NULL.
