From f867d2a2e5f3f0ce6356f452cc27b70d577de7c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jesper Juhl Date: Sun, 25 Jun 2006 05:47:09 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ensure NULL deref can't possibly happen in is_exported() If CONFIG_KALLSYMS is defined and if it should happen that is_exported() is given a NULL 'mod' and lookup_symbol(name, __start___ksymtab, __stop___ksymtab) returns 0, then we'll end up dereferencing a NULL pointer.
