[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ASoC: max98373: check for device node before parsing

[Sathyanarayana Nujella]

Below Oops is caused in a system which uses ACPI instead of device node:

of_get_named_gpiod_flags: can't parse 'maxim,reset-gpio' property of node '(null)[0]'
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010

This patch avoids NULL pointer deferencing by adding a check before parsing
and initializes to make reset-gpio pin as invalid.
