The patch below does not apply to the 4.17-stable tree. If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit id to stable@vger.kernel.org.

I think it might be enough to also backport 8e03477cb709 ("i2c: core: smbus: fix a potential missing-check bug")?

I have not tested if that is enough though (and am not in a position to easily do so)...

Yes, that worked, thanks!
