[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] hw/core/generic-loader: Fix crash when running without CPU

[Thomas Huth]

When running QEMU with "-M none -device loader,file=kernel.elf", it
currently crashes with a segmentation fault, because the "none"-machine
does not have any CPU by default and the generic loader code tries
to dereference s->cpu. Fix it by adding an appropriate check for a
NULL pointer.
