Subject: [PATCH] commands: loady: fix bug with netconsole
Date: Thu,  1 Jan 2015 21:04:21 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1420142663-6243-1-git-send-email-robert.jarzmik@free.fr> (raw)

Netconsole doesn't have a baudrate. Loady supposes a console has one,
and tries to compute the console's baudrate variable value, regardless
of its existence.

This triggers a NULL pointer dereference on netconsole. If attempting
loady on a netconsole is a bit useless, barebox should not panic. Fix
this by checking the variable exists before reading its value.
