From 556f124fb30621df3089d624ac57f13744712753 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2019 11:32:18 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: fix dereference on ds->dev before null check error Currently ds->dev is dereferenced on the assignments of pdata and np before ds->dev is null checked, hence there is a potential null pointer dereference on ds->dev. Fix this by assigning pdata and np after the ds->dev null pointer sanity check.
