Revision 4736697963385e6257ee8e260e97347e858cd962 authored by Matt Redfearn on 17 October 2016, 16:21:46 UTC, committed by Ralf Baechle on 03 November 2016, 23:30:49 UTC
If platform code returns a NULL pointer to the FDT, initial_boot_params
will not get set to a valid pointer and attempting to find the /chosen
node in it will cause a NULL pointer dereference and the kernel to crash
immediately on startup - with no output to the console.
Fix this by checking that initial_boot_params is valid before using it.
