serial: access after NULL check in uart_flush_buffer()
I noticed that
static void uart_flush_buffer(struct tty_struct *tty)
{
struct uart_state *state = tty->driver_data;
struct uart_port *port = state->port;
unsigned long flags;
/*
* This means you called this function _after_ the port was
* closed. No cookie for you.
*/
if (!state || !state->info) {
WARN_ON(1);
return;
}
is too late for checking state != NULL.
