Subject: [PATCH 5.17-rc1 v2] eeprom: at25: Restore missing allocation
Date: Tue, 18 Jan 2022 10:20:03 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220118182003.3385019-1-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)

The at25 driver regressed in v5.17-rc1 due to a broken conflict
resolution: the allocation of the object was accidentally removed. Restore
it.

This was found when building under CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y and
-Warray-bounds, which complained about strncpy() being used against an
empty object:
