Jiangshan YiandGreg Kroah-Hartman 7fb13fd7e9 serial: 8250_mid: Fix NULL function pointer dereference on DNV/ICX-D/SNR platforms
Commit b1b4efea05 ("serial: 8250_mid: Disable DMA for selected
platforms") replaced the dnv_board setup and exit callbacks with
PTR_IF(false, ...), which evaluates to NULL. However, the three call
sites in mid8250_probe() and mid8250_remove() unconditionally
dereference these function pointers without NULL checks, causing a NULL
pointer dereference (kernel oops) on any Denverton (DNV), Ice Lake Xeon
D (ICX-D/CDF), or Snowridge (SNR) platform.

Fix this by adding the missing NULL checks before calling the setup and
exit callbacks.
