commit f5e5677c420346b4e9788051c2e4d750996c428c upstream.
NULL pointer exception happens occasionally on serial output initiated
by login timeout. This was reproduced only if kernel was built with
significant debugging options and EDMA driver is used with serial
console.

Issue looks like race condition between interrupt handler fsl_edma_tx_handler()
(called as result of fsl_edma_xfer_desc()) and terminating the transfer with
fsl_edma_terminate_all().
The fsl_edma_tx_handler() handles interrupt for a transfer with already freed
edesc and idle==true.

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.
