commit b8336be66dec06bef518030a0df9847122053ec5 upstream.
The interrupt handler `dt282x_interrupt()` causes a null pointer
dereference for those supported boards that have no analog output
support. For these boards, `dev->write_subdev` will be `NULL` and
therefore the `s_ao` subdevice pointer variable will be `NULL`. In that
case, the following call near the end of the interrupt handler results
in a null pointer dereference:
comedi_handle_events(dev, s_ao);
Fix it by only calling the above function if `s_ao` is valid.
(There are other uses of `s_ao` by the interrupt handler that may or may
not be reached depending on values of hardware registers. Trust that
they are reliable for now.)
Note:
commit 4f6f009b204f ("staging: comedi: dt282x: use comedi_handle_events()")
propagates an earlier error from
commit f21c74fa4cfe ("staging: comedi: dt282x: use cfc_handle_events()").
Fixes: 4f6f009b204f ("staging: comedi: dt282x: use comedi_handle_events()")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
