LKP reported smatch warning as below:
===================
smatch warnings:
mm/vmalloc.c:3689 vread_iter() error: we previously assumed 'vm' could be null (see line 3667)
......
06c8994626d1b7 @3667 size = vm ? get_vm_area_size(vm) : va_size(va);
......
06c8994626d1b7 @3689 else if (!(vm->flags & VM_IOREMAP))
^^^^^^^^^
Unchecked dereference
=====================
This is not a runtime bug because the possible null 'vm' in the
pointed place could only happen when flags == VMAP_BLOCK. However, the
case 'flags == VMAP_BLOCK' should never happen and has been detected
with WARN_ON. Please check vm_map_ram() implementation and the earlier
checking in vread_iter() at below:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/*
* VMAP_BLOCK indicates a sub-type of vm_map_ram area, need
* be set together with VMAP_RAM.
*/
WARN_ON(flags == VMAP_BLOCK);
if (!vm && !flags)
continue;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So add checking on whether 'vm' could be null when dereferencing it in
vread_iter(). This mutes smatch complaint.
