Re: [PATCH 5.10.y] drm/cirrus: fix a NULL vs IS_ERR() checks

[Shile Zhang]

Hi David and Daniel,

Sorry but could you please help to check this issue?
Due to the function 'drm_gem_shmem_vmap' could return ERROR pointers 
which will cause the kernel crash due to 'cirrus_fb_blit_rect' only 
check the pointer.

Since the related code has been refactoring in mainline, so this issue 
only happened in stable 5.10.y branch.

@Greg
I think it is probably not realistic to backport the related refactoring 
from mainline directly, so I just give this bugfix patch only for 5.10.y 
branch.

Thanks!

I'm sorry, but I do not have "this bugfix" in my queue anymore,
considering it is so old.  Please rebase and resubmit.
