There are some error paths in kvmppc_core_vcpu_create_e500() where we forget to set the error code. It means that we return ERR_PTR(0) which is NULL and it results in a NULL pointer dereference in the caller. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <redacted>
Are these user-triggerable, and therefore needing to go into 4.13 and be back-ported to the stable trees? Or can they wait for 4.14? Paul.
