From 94d4e7af14a1170e34cf082d92e4c02de9e9fb88 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Enrico Granata Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2019 15:40:36 -0700 Subject: platform/chrome: cros_ec_proto: check for NULL transfer function As new transfer mechanisms are added to the EC codebase, they may not support v2 of the EC protocol. If the v3 initial handshake transfer fails, the kernel will try and call cmd_xfer as a fallback. If v2 is not supported, cmd_xfer will be NULL, and the code will end up causing a kernel panic. Add a check for NULL before calling the transfer function, along with a helpful comment explaining how one might end up in this situation.
