Syzkaller found a null pointer dereference in ptp_ioctl originating from the lack of a null check for tsevq. ``` general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc000000020b: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN KASAN: probably user-memory-access in range [0x0000000000001058-0x000000000000105f] CPU: 0 PID: 5053 Comm: syz-executor353 Not tainted 6.6.0-syzkaller-10396-g4652b8e4f3ff #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 10/09/2023 RIP: 0010:ptp_ioctl+0xcb7/0x1d10 drivers/ptp/ptp_chardev.c:476 ...

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.
