There is a potential dereferencing null pointer issue in
arch_show_interrupts.
Problem 1:
int arch_show_interrupts(struct seq_file *p, int prec)
for (i = 0; i < NR_IPI; i++) {
seq_printf(p, "%10u ", irq_desc_kstat_cpu(ipi_desc[i],
cpu));
Only ipi_desc[0..nr_ipi - 1] are initialized in set_smp_ipi_range.
and ipi_desc[nr_ipi..NR_IPI] are NULL.
irq_desc_kstat_cpu will dereference NULL pointer.
For now, the problem can not be triggered, because NR_IPI is always
equal to nr_ipi.
Problem 2:
If request_percpu_irq failed in set_smp_ipi_range, ipi_desc[i]
would be NULL.
irq_desc_kstat_cpu will dereference NULL pointer.
check !ipi_desc[i] (as arm does) to avoid the problem.
