From: Sudhir Sreedharan Date: Thu, 15 Feb 2018 07:22:45 +0000 (+0530) Subject: rtl8187: Fix NULL pointer dereference in priv->conf_mutex X-Git-Tag: v4.9.95~9 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bcd7de03d68a6953d00453bc1380ee34d2f4e000;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-amlogic.git rtl8187: Fix NULL pointer dereference in priv->conf_mutex commit 7972326a26b5bf8dc2adac575c4e03ee7e9d193a upstream. This can be reproduced by bind/unbind the driver multiple times in AM3517 board. Analysis revealed that rtl8187_start() was invoked before probe finishes(ie. before the mutex is initialized). INFO: trying to register non-static key. the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation. turning off the locking correctness validator.
