SubjectRe: [PATCH] PM / devfreq: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in governor_store

Quoting MyungJoo Ham <myungjoo.ham@samsung.com>:

>> df->governor is being dereferenced before it is null checked,
>> hence there is a potential null pointer dereference.
>>
>> Notice that df->governor is being null checked at line 1004:
>> if (df->governor) {, which implies it might be null.
>>
>> Fix this by null checking df->governor before dereferencing it.
>>
>> Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1401988 ("Dereference before null check")
>> Fixes: bcf23c79c4e4 ("PM / devfreq: Fix available_governor sysfs")
>> Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R. Silva <garsilva@embeddedor.com>

Thank you, MyungJoo
