From bb9bb6bfd1c37b1c0786248c2785536146603fa8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Pirko Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2023 08:58:30 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] devlink: don't work with possible NULL pointer in devlink_param_unregister() There is a WARN_ON checking the param_item for being NULL when the param is not inserted in the list. That indicates a driver BUG. Instead of continuing to work with NULL pointer with its consequences, return.
