Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: use list_first_entry_or_null for opinfo_get_list()
The list_first_entry() macro never returns NULL. If the list is
empty then it returns an invalid pointer. Use list_first_entry_or_null()
to check if the list is empty.
