drm/mediatek: Add missing IS_ERR check for ovl_adaptor platform devicegrafted
platform_device_register_data() can fail and return an ERR_PTR, but the
return value is used without checking, leading to an invalid pointer
being stored in ddp_comp[].dev and passed to component_match_add() and
mtk_ddp_comp_init(), which could result in a kernel crash.
Add an IS_ERR() check to jump to the error handling path on failure.

The simple +thermal relationship between processor and fan has become past for modern +computers. + +As hardware vendors cope with the thermal constraints on their products, more +and more sensors are added, new cooling capabilities are introduced. The +complexity of the thermal relationship can grow exponentially among cooling +devices, zones, sensors, and trip points. They can also change dynamically. + +To expose such relationship to the userspace, Linux generic thermal layer +introduced sysfs entry at /sys/class/thermal with a matrix of symbolic +links, trip point bindings, and device instances. To traverse such +matrix by hand is not a trivial task. Testing is also difficult in that +thermal conditions are often exception cases that hard to reach in +normal operations. + +TMON is conceived as a tool to help visualize, tune, and test the +complex thermal subsystem. + +Files +===== + tmon.c : main function for set up and configurations. + tui.c : handles ncurses based user interface + sysfs.c : access to the generic thermal sysfs + pid.c : a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller + that can be used for thermal relationship training. + +Requirements +============ +Depends on ncurses + +Build +========= +$ make +$ sudo ./tmon -h +Usage: tmon [OPTION...] + -c, --control cooling device in control + -d, --daemon run as daemon, no TUI + -l, --log log data to /var/tmp/tmon.log + -h, --help show this help message + -t, --time-interval set time interval for sampling + -v, --version show version + -g, --debug debug message in syslog + +1.
