Subject: [PATCH 1/3] mtd: cfi-flash: fail gracefully instead of crashing on NULL page
Date: Sun, 28 Feb 2021 20:07:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210228190707.1451161-1-ahmad@a3f.at> (raw)

Until this is fixed, add a comment and have the driver return with an
error instead of crashing on null pointer dereference if it's mapped to
zero.
