From: Valentine Barshak Date: Wed, 5 Dec 2007 00:14:32 +0000 (+1100) Subject: ibm_newemac: Call dev_set_drvdata() before tah_reset() X-Git-Tag: v2.6.24-rc5~27 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d09e18bc194c3fa8ae880df4567c719c36a73e9e;p=linux-2.6 ibm_newemac: Call dev_set_drvdata() before tah_reset() The patch moves dev_set_drvdata(&ofdev->dev, dev) up before tah_reset(ofdev) is called to avoid a NULL pointer dereference, since tah_reset uses drvdata.
