The return values of `drm_edid_dup()` and `drm_edid_read_ddc()` must
be checked in `tegra_output_connector_get_modes()` to prevent NULL
pointer dereferences. If either function fails, the function should
immediately return 0, indicating that no display modes can be retrieved.

A proper implementation can be found in `vidi_get_modes()`, where the
return values are carefully validated, and the function returns 0 upon
failure.

No. It works as designed, and drm_edid_connector_update() and
cec_notifier_set_phys_addr() *must* be called with NULL drm_edid in case
of failure.

That case is slightly different, as it doesn't actually access the
display at that point, but it wouldn't be wrong to skip the early
!drm_edid check there too.

When you claim to fix a commit, it's encouraged to Cc: the author and
possibly reviewers of said commit.


BR,
