Subject: [PATCH] firmware: arm_scmi: Use after free in scmi_create_protocol_device()
Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2018 14:06:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180427140649.GD19583@mwanda> (raw)

We need to return here instead of setting up the freed sdev device as a
transport.

Fixes: 907b6d14911d ("firmware: arm_scmi: add per-protocol channels support using idr objects")
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>
