From 0d1bb4e684935fce3fc71bdeb6c1fc89af8e59bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steve Glendinning Date: Sun, 29 Nov 2009 23:14:45 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] smsc9420: prevent BUG() if ethtool is called with interface down [ Upstream commit 6c53b1b15e222244358d3cbbefd2a13920faa352 ] This patch fixes a null pointer dereference BUG() if ethtool is used on an smsc9420 interface while it is down, because the phy_dev is only allocated while the interface is up.
