[RFC 1/1] Driver Core: don't oops with unregistered driver in driver_find_device()

From: Hiroshi DOYU <hidden>
Date: 2012-05-10 07:37:20
Also in: linux-tegra, lkml
Subsystem: driver core, kobjects, debugfs and sysfs, the rest · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, "Rafael J. Wysocki", Danilo Krummrich, Linus Torvalds

driver_find_device() can be called with an unregistered driver. Need
to check driver_private to see if it's populated or not, especially
under deferrable probe.

"tegra_ahb_driver" may not be populated when it's called.
