[PATCH 1/2] can: c_can_pci: fix null-pointer-deref in c_can_start() - set device pointer

From: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de>
Date: 2017-01-18 12:09:37
Also in: linux-can, stable
Subsystem: can network drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Marc Kleine-Budde, Vincent Mailhol, Linus Torvalds

From: Einar Jón <redacted>

The priv->device pointer for c_can_pci is never set, but it is used
without a NULL check in c_can_start(). Setting it in c_can_pci_probe()
like c_can_plat_probe() prevents c_can_pci.ko from crashing, with and
without CONFIG_PM.

This might also cause the pm_runtime_*() functions in c_can.c to
actually be executed for c_can_pci devices - they are the only other
place where priv->device is used, but they all contain a null check.
