dma-debug: Fix check_unmap null pointer dereference
While it's debatable whether or not a NULL device argument to the DMA API functions is valid... since it certainly isn't valid on devices with an IOMMU... dma-debug really shouldn't be dereferencing null pointers either. Guard against that in err_printk and the driver_filter functions. A Fedora rawhide user was seeing this in one of the dvb drivers resulting in an oops on boot. [ A patch has been sent for testing to the driver, but I feel the dma debugging support should be fixed as well. (There's still a pile of legacy garbage in the kernel passing null pointers to dma_{alloc,free}_*. :( ] Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@redhat.com> Cc: mchehab@infradead.org Cc: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> LKML-Reference: <20090820011708.GP25206@bombadil.infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
