[PATCH 6.19 277/311] net: ethernet: mtk_ppe: avoid NULL deref when gmac0 is disabled

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2026-04-08 19:01:45
Also in: stable

6.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sven Eckelmann (Plasma Cloud) <redacted>

commit 976ff48c2ac6e6b25b01428c9d7997bcd0fb2949 upstream.

If the gmac0 is disabled, the precheck for a valid ingress device will
cause a NULL pointer deref and crash the system. This happens because
eth->netdev[0] will be NULL but the code will directly try to access
netdev_ops.

Instead of just checking for the first net_device, it must be checked if
any of the mtk_eth net_devices is matching the netdev_ops of the ingress
device.
