In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: aspeed: Add NULL pointer check in ast_vhub_init_dev()
The variable d->name, returned by devm_kasprintf(), could be NULL.
A pointer check is added to prevent potential NULL pointer dereference.
This is similar to the fix in commit 3027e7b15b02
("ice: Fix some null pointer dereference issues in ice_ptp.c").
