From: Enric Balletbo i Serra enric.balletbo@collabora.com Date: Sat, 13 Oct 2018 12:56:54 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] drm/rockchip: psr: do not dereference encoder before it is null checked.
'encoder' is dereferenced before it is null sanity checked, hence we potentially have a null pointer dereference bug. Instead, initialise drm_drv from encoder->dev->dev_private after we are sure 'encoder' is not null.
