Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] dax-device: Prevent registering drivers without probe callback
Date: Fri,  5 Feb 2021 23:28:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210205222842.34896-2-uwe@kleine-koenig.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210205222842.34896-1-uwe@kleine-koenig.org>

The bus probe function dax_bus_probe() calls the probe callback without
checking it to be non-NULL. Prevent a NULL pointer exception if a driver
without a probe function is registered by refusing to register this
driver.
