The bug is here: return encoder; The list iterator value 'encoder' will *always* be set and non-NULL by drm_for_each_encoder_mask(), so it is incorrect to assume that the iterator value will be NULL if the list is empty or no element found. Otherwise it will bypass some NULL checks and lead to invalid memory access passing the check. To fix this bug, just return 'encoder' when found, otherwise return NULL.

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.
