Since commit baf94e6ebff9 ("iommu/mediatek: Add device link for smi-
common
and m4u"), the driver assumes that at least one phandle associated
with
"mediatek,larbs" exists. If that is not the case, for example if
reason
"mediatek,larbs" is provided as boolean property, the code will use
an
uninitialized pointer and may crash. To fix the problem, ensure that
the
number of phandles associated with "mediatek,larbs" is at least 1 and
bail out immediately if that is not the case.
From the dt-binding, "mediatek,larbs" always is a phandle-array. I 
assumed the dts should conform to the dt-binding before. Then the
problem is that if we should cover the case that someone abuses/attacks
the dts. Could you help add more comment in the commit message?
something like: this is for avoid abuse the dt-binding.

Just assigning the larbnode to NULL may be simpler. In this case, it
won't enter the loop below, and return 0 in the
of_parse_phandle(larbnode, "mediatek,smi", 0).
