Check in snd_intel_dsp_check_soundwire() that the pointer returned by
ACPI_HANDLE() is not NULL, before passing it on to other functions.
The original code assumed a non-NULL return, but if it was unexpectedly
NULL it would end up passed to acpi_walk_namespace() as the start
point, and would result in

This problem was triggered by a bugged DSDT that the kernel couldn't parse.
But it shouldn't be possible to SEGFAULT the kernel just because of some
bugs in ACPI.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
