[ Upstream commit 0d27056c24efd3d63a03f3edfbcfc4827086b110 ]
When trying to instantiate a max14830 device from userspace:
echo max14830 0x60 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-2/new_device
we get the following error:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address...
...
Call trace:
max310x_i2c_probe+0x48/0x170 [max310x]
i2c_device_probe+0x150/0x2a0
...
Add check for validity of devtype to prevent the error, and abort probe
with a meaningful error message.
Fixes:
