SubjectRe: [PATCH] drm/atomic-helper: Validate pointer before dereference
Hi,

First of all, thanks for the feedback.

I will fix all the problems pointed out in the review.

I just have two inline questions.

Do I need to add information which says that both functions are
optional? I'm asking because the description related to the affected
functions and struct looks good for me [1,2,3].

1. Documentation for drm_crtc_helper_funcs:
https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/drm-kms-helpers.html?highlight=drm_crtc_helper_funcs#c.drm_crtc_helper_funcs

2. Documentation for drm_atomic_helper_commit_modeset_enables():
https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/drm-kms-helpers.html?highlight=drm_atomic_helper_commit_modeset_enables#c.drm_atomic_helper_commit_modeset_enables

3. Documentation for drm_atomic_helper_commit_modeset_disables():
https://dri.freedesktop.org/docs/drm/gpu/drm-kms-helpers.html?highlight=drm_atomic_helper_commit_modeset_disables#c.drm_atomic_helper_commit_modeset_disables

Should I remove the other occurrence of "if (funcs)" inside
disable_outputs() and drm_atomic_helper_commit_modeset_enables()? Both
functions, already had this before.
