Subject: [PATCH v2 07/27] mfd: db8500-prcmu: Make AB8500 cell and IRQ resource static
Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2026 09:30:36 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261027093306.2812695-8-lee@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261027093306.2812695-1-lee@kernel.org>
db8500_prcmu_register_ab8500() declares struct resource ab850x_resource
and the mfd_cell descriptors on the stack and assigns &ab850x_resource
to ab850x_cell->resources. Although mfd_add_device() deep-copies the
resource table via platform_device_add_resources() before
db8500_prcmu_register_ab8500() returns, the shallow MFD cell copy
attached to the child platform device retains a stale pointer to the
expired stack frame.
Mark ab850x_resource as static and the ab8500_cell and ab8505_cell
descriptors as static const so the resource pointer remains valid for
the lifetime of the device.
Fixes: 55b175d7e632 ("ARM: ux500: split out prcmu initialization")
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/bug/linux-554f3a1f-ca41-4078-ae9e-66d0d7fb4c9d
