sc27xx_fgu_external_power_changed() dereferences data->battery, which gets sets in ab8500_btemp_probe() like this: data->battery = devm_power_supply_register(dev, &sc27xx_fgu_desc, &fgu_cfg); As soon as devm_power_supply_register() has called device_add() the external_power_changed callback can get called. So there is a window where sc27xx_fgu_external_power_changed() may get called while data->battery has not been set yet leading to a NULL pointer dereference. Fixing this is easy. The external_power_changed callback gets passed the power_supply which will eventually get stored in data->battery, so sc27xx_fgu_external_power_changed() can simply directly use the passed in psy argument which is always valid. After this change sc27xx_fgu_external_power_changed() is reduced to just "power_supply_changed(psy);" and it has the same prototype. While at it simply replace it with making the external_power_changed callback directly point to power_supply_changed.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
