Tzung-Bi Shih 9cf59f4724 Input: cros_ec_keyb - fix an invalid memory access
commit e08969c4d65ac31297fcb4d31d4808c789152f68 upstream.

If cros_ec_keyb_register_matrix() isn't called (due to
`buttons_switches_only`) in cros_ec_keyb_probe(), `ckdev->idev` remains
NULL.  An invalid memory access is observed in cros_ec_keyb_process()
when receiving an EC_MKBP_EVENT_KEY_MATRIX event in cros_ec_keyb_work()
in such case.

  Unable to handle kernel read from unreadable memory at virtual address 0000000000000028
  ...
  x3 : 0000000000000000 x2 : 0000000000000000
  x1 : 0000000000000000 x0 : 0000000000000000
  Call trace:
  input_event
  cros_ec_keyb_work
  blocking_notifier_call_chain
  ec_irq_thread

It's still unknown about why the kernel receives such malformed event,
in any cases, the kernel shouldn't access `ckdev->idev` and friends if
the driver doesn't intend to initialize them.

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.
