[ Upstream commit 3e4272b9954094907f16861199728f14002fcaf6 ]
In a previous commit 7433632c9ff6, buffer, buffer->buffers and
buffer->buffers[cpu] in ring_buffer_wake_waiters() can be NULL,
and thus the related checks are added.
However, in the same call stack, these variables are also used in
ring_buffer_free_read_page():
tracing_buffers_release()
ring_buffer_wake_waiters(iter->array_buffer->buffer)
cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu] -> Add checks by previous commit
ring_buffer_free_read_page(iter->array_buffer->buffer)
cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu] -> No check
Thus, to avod possible null-pointer derefernces, the related checks
should be added.
These results are reported by a static tool designed by myself.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
