In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers/thermal/loongson2thermal: Fix incorrect PTRERR() judgment
PTR_ERR() returns -ENODEV when thermal-zones are undefined, and we need -ENODEV as the right value for comparison.
Otherwise, tz->type is NULL when thermal-zones is undefined, resulting in the following error:
