On Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 370 (and possibly some other Lenovo models as
well) the Thunderbolt host controller sometimes comes up in such way
that the ICM firmware is not running properly. This is most likely an
issue in BIOS/firmware but as side-effect driver crashes the kernel due
to NULL pointer dereference:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000980
IP: pci_write_config_dword+0x5/0x20
Call Trace:
pcie2cio_write+0x3b/0x70 [thunderbolt]

Instead of crashing update the driver to bail out gracefully if we
encounter such situation.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
