Subject: [PATCH v2] leds: lp55xx: avoid dereferencing a stale platform_data pointer
Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2015 02:18:50 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1438679930-26080-1-git-send-email-toshik@chromium.org> (raw)
lp55xx_of_populate_pdata() allocates platform_data dynamically if DT
is used. The memory area is allocated with devm_kzalloc() so it is
automatically freed if the driver is unloaded. The driver should clear
the pointer to platform_data before it is unloaded, otherwise it will
use the stale pointer accidentally if the driver is reloaded.
Change-Id: Ia097ed83b92cec5a52534a71dcb5322869c2a7b1
