While this shouldn't really be something that happens all that often, since we're going to be using the drm_dbg_* log helpers in DRM helpers it's technically possible that a driver could use an AUX adapter before it's been associated with it's respective drm_device. While drivers should take care to avoid this, there's likely going to be situations where it's difficult to workaround. And since other logging helpers in the kernel tend to be OK with NULL pointers (for instance, passing a NULL pointer to a "%s" argument for a printk-like function in the kernel doesn't break anything), we should do the same for ours.

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.
