Subject: [PATCH] drm/mediatek: dsi: Store driver data before invoking mipi_dsi_host_register
Date: Mon, 9 Feb 2026 09:05:15 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260209090516.14369-1-l.scorcia@gmail.com> (raw)
The call to mipi_dsi_host_register triggers a callback to mtk_dsi_bind,
which uses dev_get_drvdata to retrieve the mtk_dsi struct, so this
structure needs to be stored inside the driver data before invoking it.
As drvdata is currently uninitialized it leads to a crash when
registering the DSI DRM encoder right after acquiring
the mode_config.idr_mutex, blocking all subsequent DRM operations.
Fixes the following crash during mediatek-drm probe (tested on Xiaomi
Smart Clock x04g):
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
0000000000000040
