Subject: [PATCH 4.4 05/47] spi: davinci: fix a NULL pointer dereference

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@...libre.com>

commit 563a53f3906a6b43692498e5b3ae891fac93a4af upstream.

On non-OF systems spi->controlled_data may be NULL. This causes a NULL
pointer derefence on dm365-evm.
