Subject[PATCH] net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: fix NULL pointer dereference in switch mode
Date
In switch mode on struct cpsw_slave->ndev field will be initialized with
proper value only for the one cpsw slave port, as result
cpsw_get_usage_count() will generate "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer
dereference" exception when first ethernet interface is opening
cpsw_ndo_open(). This issue causes boot regression on AM335x EVM and
reproducible on am57xx-evm (switch mode).
Fix it by adding additional check for !cpsw->slaves[i].ndev in
cpsw_get_usage_count().
