The following code run as root will cause a null pointer dereference oops:

    int fd = open("/dev/vc-cma", O_RDONLY);
    if (fd < 0)
            err(1, "open failed");
    (void)close(fd);

..the fix is to ensure that we have actually initialized the queue before we attempt
to push any items onto it. This occurs if we do an open() followed by a close() without
any activity in between.

static analysis with cppcheck detected some redundant code which
should probably be removed:

static analysis by cppcheck detected an unnecessary initialization
of variable 'result' which is re-assigned almost immediately after
the initialization.  Remove the redundant initialization.

  'result' is reassigned a value before the old one has been used.

…e the resource

resource can be kfree'd when the reference count is zero, so we should
not bump the res_stats of the resource after the vmcs_sm_release_resource
call since the resource may have been kfree'd by this call. Instead, bump
the stats before we call vmcs_sm_release_resource to avoid a potential
NULL pointer derefernce.

Bug found using cppcheck static analysis:

[drivers/char/broadcom/vc_sm/vmcs_sm.c:1373]: (error) Dereferencing
  'resource' after it is deallocated / released

dereference issues:

[drivers/media/platform/bcm2835/controls.c:854]: (error) Possible null
  pointer dereference: scene
  (and lines 858, 859 too)

it is possible that scene is not found because of an invalue ctrl->val
and is therefore NULL and hence causing a null pointer dereference.
