cpufreq: Add NULL checks to show() and store() methods of cpufreq commit e6e8df07268c1f75dd9215536e2ce4587b70f977 upstream. Add NULL checks to show() and store() in cpufreq.c to avoid attempts to invoke a NULL callback. Though some interfaces of cpufreq are set as read-only, users can still get write permission using chmod which can lead to a kernel crash, as follows: chmod +w /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq This bug was found in linux 4.19.
