From 8910b49fbb8d4517a20bb3de7dc239dcfa7d2b6f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Micah Gruber Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2007 11:29:04 +0800 Subject: Fix a potential NULL pointer dereference in free_shared_mem() in drivers/net/s2io.c This patch fixes a potential null dereference bug where we dereference nic before a null check. This patch simply moves the dereferencing after the null check.
