Subject: [PATCH] of: Fix missing memory initialization on FDT unflattening
Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2013 12:41:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1377776494-27040-1-git-send-email-grant.likely@linaro.org> (raw)
Any calls to dt_alloc() need to be zeroed. This is a temporary fix, but
the allocation function itself needs to zero memory before returning
it. This is a follow up to patch 9e4012752, "of: fdt: fix memory
initialization for expanded DT" which fixed one call site but missed
another.
