Subject: mx3fb: fix NULL pointer dereference in screen blanking.
X-Git-Tag: v3.2-rc1~120^2~15
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8b53b7fb57e1ce3441b1a32f8374874b53c4bc31;p=pandora-kernel.git

mx3fb: fix NULL pointer dereference in screen blanking.

When blanking an already blanked framebuffer, a kernel NULL pointer
dereference occurred, because mx3fb driver handles all kinds of screen
blanking (normal, vsync suspend, powerdown) in the same way.
Certain programs (Xorg X11 server) first do a normal blank, followed by
a powerdown blank, which triggered the bug.

Add an additional safeguard and make sdc_disable_channel() safe against
multiple calls independent of other logic.
