Subject: [PATCH 4.19 022/361] dma-mapping: fix panic caused by passing empty cma command line argument

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

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

From: He Zhe <zhe.he@...driver.com>

commit a3ceed87b07769fb80ce9dc6b604e515dba14c4b upstream.

early_cma does not check input argument before passing it to
simple_strtoull. The argument would be a NULL pointer if "cma", without
its value, is set in command line and thus causes the following panic.

PANIC: early exception 0xe3 IP 10:ffffffffa3e9db8d error 0 cr2 0x0

This patch adds a check to prevent the panic.
