to_intel_crtc() always returns a non-NULL pointer.
Eh? to_intel_crtc(NULL) should return NULL or we might have tons of breakage on our hands. Or maybe the atomic work has gotten rid of that assumption, but at least we used to depend on that heavily.
Well, to_intel_crtc() has been always container_of() since the very beginning of universe:

DRM: i915: add mode setting support--- /dev/null +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_drv.h .... +#define to_intel_crtc(x) container_of(x, struct intel_crtc, base) ....
Yes, but struct intel_crtc { struct drm_crtc base; ... }
So offsetof(struct intel_crtc, base)==0 and NULL-0 is still NULL.
I once suggested that someone should add a compile time assert to make sure this always holds for us, but no one took the bait.
Argh, only from the usage of container_of(), no one expects this implicit assumption :-< Indeed intel code has lots of these silent rules, e.g. calling kfree() for the base class object.
Daniel, could you please take my patch back?
Oops. Patch reverted, sorry for the mess. -Daniel
thanks,
