Subject[PATCH] soc: aspeed: Add NULL pointer check in aspeed_lpc_enable_snoop()
Date
lpc_snoop->chan[channel].miscdev.name could be NULL, thus,
a pointer check is added to prevent potential NULL pointer dereference.
This is similar to the fix in commit 3027e7b15b02
("ice: Fix some null pointer dereference issues in ice_ptp.c").

This issue is found by our static analysis tool.
