Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/mediatek: Fix NULL pointer dereference when printing dev_name When larbdev is NULL (in the case I hit, the node is incorrectly set iommus = <&iommu NUM>), it will cause device_link_add() fail and kernel crashes when we try to print dev_name(larbdev). Let's fail the probe if a larbdev is NULL to avoid invalid inputs from dts. It should work for normal correct setting and avoid the crash caused by my incorrect setting. Error log: [ 18.189042][ T301] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000050 ...
