Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> net: phy: dp83822: Fix NULL pointer dereference on DP83825 devices<br /> <br /> The probe() function is only used for DP83822 and DP83826 PHY,<br /> leaving the private data pointer uninitialized for the DP83825 models<br /> which causes a NULL pointer dereference in the recently introduced/changed<br /> functions dp8382x_config_init() and dp83822_set_wol().<br /> <br /> Add the dp8382x_probe() function, so all PHY models will have a valid<br /> private data pointer to fix this issue and also prevent similar issues<br /> in the future.
