usb: host: xhci: Fix Null pointer dereferencing with 71c731a for non-x86 systems In 71c731a: usb: host: xhci: Fix Compliance Mode on SN65LVPE502CP Hardware when extracting DMI strings (vendor or product_name) to mark them as quirk we may get NULL pointer in case of non-x86 systems which won't define CONFIG_DMI. Hence susbsequent strstr() calls crash while driver probing. So, returning 'false' here in case we get a NULL vendor or product_name. This is tested with ARM (exynos) system. This patch should be backported to stable kernels as old as 3.6, that contain the commit 71c731a296f1b08a3724bd1b514b64f1bda87a23 "usb: host: xhci: Fix Compliance Mode on SN65LVPE502CP Hardware" Signed-off-by: Vivek Gautam <gautam.vivek@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Sarah Sharp <sarah.a.sharp@linux.intel.com> Reported-by: Sebastian Gottschall (DD-WRT) <s.gottschall@dd-wrt.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
