commit f1601113ddc0339a745e702f4fb1ca37d4875e65 upstream. When tracing ata link error event, the kernel crashes when the disk is removed due to NULL pointer access by trace_ata_eh_link_autopsy API. This occurs as the dev is NULL when the disk disappeared. This patch fixes this crash by calling trace_ata_eh_link_autopsy only if "dev" is not NULL. v2 changes: Removed direct passing "link" pointer instead of "dev" in trace API.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
