Subject: [PATCH] of_partition: devfs_add_partition returns an error pointer
Date: Fri,  1 Aug 2014 08:34:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1406874867-17094-1-git-send-email-s.hauer@pengutronix.de> (raw)

Check for the return value of devfs_add_partition with IS_ERR.
Otherwise we dereference a NULL pointer when devfs_add_partition
fails.
