Subject[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 144/160] net: phy: mdio-mux: Check return value of mdiobus_alloc()
Date
3.19.8-ckt13 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>

commit 20b08e1a793d898f0f13040d5418ee0955f678cf upstream.

mdiobus_alloc() might return NULL, but its return value is not
checked in mdio_mux_init(). This could potentially lead to a NULL
pointer dereference. Fix it by checking the return value

Fixes: 0ca2997d1452 ("netdev/of/phy: Add MDIO bus multiplexer support.")
