[PATCH v4] iio: health: max30102: fix NULL dereference in interrupt handler

Message-ID <[email protected]>
The interrupt is requested in max30102_probe() and stays enabled
for the lifetime of the device, but indio_dev->active_scan_mask is only
valid while a buffer is enabled. When an interrupt arrives while no
buffer is enabled, the handler dereferences the NULL active_scan_mask:

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000
  Call trace:
   __bitmap_weight+0x64/0x98 (P)
   max30102_interrupt_handler+0x48/0x160 [max30102]

Call max30102_fifo_count() at the top of the handler and return early
unless it reports a FIFO sample is ready. Because FIFO_RDY is the only
interrupt source enabled in max30102_chip_init(), an invocation of
max30102_interrupt_handler() without the FIFO_RDY interrupt status bit
set carries no data to read and can return before touching
active_scan_mask. A negative return from max30102_fifo_count()
indicates a failed interrupt status read and is treated the same way.

Changes in v4:
- Trim the backtrace to only relevant frames and unwrap the first line
  as suggested by Andy.

max30102_fifo_count() still has the odd name and int return you mentioned
in v2, so I will send a follow-up patch once this lands.

Tested on a MAX30102 on Raspberry Pi 4 over I2C.
