Subject[PATCH 5.10 578/717] dyndbg: fix use before null check
Date
From: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com>

commit 3577afb0052fca65e67efdfc8e0859bb7bac87a6 upstream.

In commit a2d375eda771 ("dyndbg: refine export, rename to
dynamic_debug_exec_queries()"), a string is copied before checking it
isn't NULL. Fix this, report a usage/interface error, and return the
proper error code.
