usb: typec: tcpm: Fix NULL pointer dereference in tcpm_pd_svdm()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 4987daf upstream.

It is possible that typec_register_partner() returns ERR_PTR on failure.
When port->partner is an error, a NULL pointer dereference may occur as
shown below.

Add a check for port->partner to avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer.
