commit 7379e6baeddf580d01feca650ec1ad508b6ea8ee upstream.
The interrupt handler `pci230_interrupt()` causes a null pointer
dereference for a PCI260 card. There is no analog output subdevice for
a PCI260. The `dev->write_subdev` subdevice pointer and therefore the
`s_ao` subdevice pointer variable will be `NULL` for a PCI260. The
following call near the end of the interrupt handler results in the null
pointer dereference for a PCI260:
comedi_handle_events(dev, s_ao);
Fix it by only calling the above function if `s_ao` is valid.
Note that the other uses of `s_ao` in the calls
`pci230_handle_ao_nofifo(dev, s_ao);` and `pci230_handle_ao_fifo(dev,
s_ao);` will never be reached for a PCI260, so they are safe.

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.
