Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 58/84] rfkill: Fix incorrect check to avoid NULL pointer dereference
Date
From: Aditya Pakki <pakki001@umn.edu>

[ Upstream commit 6fc232db9e8cd50b9b83534de9cd91ace711b2d7 ]

In rfkill_register, the struct rfkill pointer is first derefernced
and then checked for NULL. This patch removes the BUG_ON and returns
an error to the caller in case rfkill is NULL.
