Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: cros-ec-tunnel: defer probe if parent EC is not present
When i2c-cros-ec-tunnel and the EC driver are built-in, the EC parent
device will not be found, leading to NULL pointer dereference.
That can also be reproduced by unbinding the controller driver and then
loading i2c-cros-ec-tunnel module (or binding the device).
