Did you noticed any issue without this patch?

It seems that all the get_help() cmdline functions are never called
with a NULL destination buffer (see in cmdline_parse.c). I think it
is useless to add this test as there is no good reason to give a NULL
argument. It is like testing that the arguments of strcpy() are
non-NULL.

I would say the same for pci_get_uio_dev().

Regards,
Olivier
