In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amd/display: Avoid NULL dereference in dc_dmub_srv error paths

In dc_dmub_srv_log_diagnostic_data() and
dc_dmub_srv_enable_dpia_trace().

Both functions check:

if (!dc_dmub_srv || !dc_dmub_srv->dmub)

and then call DC_LOG_ERROR() inside that block.

DC_LOG_ERROR() uses dc_dmub_srv->ctx internally. So if
dc_dmub_srv is NULL, the logging itself can dereference a
NULL pointer and cause a crash.

Fix this by splitting the checks.

First check if dc_dmub_srv is NULL and return immediately.
Then check dc_dmub_srv->dmub and log the error only when
dc_dmub_srv is valid.

Fixes the below:
../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:962 dc_dmub_srv_log_diagnostic_data() error: we previously assumed 'dc_dmub_srv' could be null (see line 961)
../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:1167 dc_dmub_srv_enable_dpia_trace() error: we previously assumed 'dc_dmub_srv' could be null (see line 1166)
