[PATCH] serial: pch_uart: potential dereference of null pointer

From: Jiasheng Jiang <hidden>
Date: 2021-12-16 09:44:33
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Jiri Slaby

The return value of dma_alloc_coherent() needs to be checked.
To avoid dereference of null pointer in case of the failure of alloc.

Fixes: ab4382d27412 ("tty: move drivers/serial/ to drivers/tty/serial/")
Signed-off-by: Jiasheng Jiang <redacted>
