In afs_read_dir(), there is an if statement on line 255 to check whether
req->pages is NULL:
if (!req->pages)
goto error;
If req->pages is NULL, afs_put_read() on line 337 is executed.
In afs_put_read(), req->pages[i] is used on line 195.
Thus, a possible null-pointer dereference may occur in this case.
To fix this possible bug, an if statement is added in afs_put_read() to
check req->pages.
This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.

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.
