From a15d49fd3094cff90e5410ca454a870e0a722fe1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hannes Reinecke Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2012 15:06:25 +0200 Subject: driver core: check start node in klist_iter_init_node klist_iter_init_node() takes a node as a start argument. However, this node might not be valid anymore. This patch updates the klist_iter_init_node() and dependent functions to return an error if so. All calling functions have been audited to check for a return code here.
