From 5061bb7065d05efbac35a660eb30ed4c3100690b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Gabbasov Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2019 05:06:22 -0600 Subject: ALSA: aloop: Avoid pointer dereference before null-check Static analysis tools (cppcheck and PVS Studio) report an error in loopback_snd_timer_period_elapsed() regarding dpcm_play pointer dereference earlier than its null-check. And although this is a result of a formal check, and the pointer correctness is also protected by having a corresponding bit set in the "running" mask, re-ordering of the lines can imake the code even formally correct and eliminate those static analysis error reports.
