In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i2c:
smbus: fix NULL function pointer dereference Baruch reported an OOPS when
using the designware controller as target only. Target-only modes break the
assumption of one transfer function always being available. Fix this by
always checking the pointer in __i2c_transfer. [wsa: dropped the
simplification in core-smbus to avoid theoretical regressions]
