control_message() might be called with pao = NULL. Here indicates control_message() as sample.
(B) static void control_message(struct hpi_adapter_obj *pao, ...) { ^^^ struct hpi_hw_obj *phw = pao->priv; ... ^^^ }
(A) void _HPI_6205(struct hpi_adapter_obj *pao, ...) { ^^^ ... case HPI_OBJ_CONTROL: (B) control_message(pao, phm, phr); break; ^^^ ... }
void HPI_6205(...) { ... (A) _HPI_6205(NULL, phm, phr); ... ^^^^ }
Therefore, We will get too many warning via cppcheck, like below
sound/pci/asihpi/hpi6205.c:238:27: warning: Possible null pointer dereference: pao [nullPointer] struct hpi_hw_obj *phw = pao->priv; ^ sound/pci/asihpi/hpi6205.c:433:13: note: Calling function '_HPI_6205', 1st argument 'NULL' value is 0 _HPI_6205(NULL, phm, phr); ^ sound/pci/asihpi/hpi6205.c:401:20: note: Calling function 'control_message', 1st argument 'pao' value is 0 control_message(pao, phm, phr); ^ Set phr->error like many functions doing, and don't call _HPI_6205() with NULL.
