[PATCH v1 0/2] staging: greybus: audio: small fixes

[Hardik Phalet]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 299 bytes --]

This series contains two small fixes for the Greybus audio manager:

1) Fix a NULL dereference in gb_audio_manager_get_module().
2) Drop a stale TODO in the module release callback.

Both are correctness / cleanup fixes with no functional change beyond
preventing crashes.

Thanks,
Hardik

Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] staging: greybus: audio: fix NULL dereference in
 gb_audio_manager_get_module()

gb_audio_manager_get_module() calls gb_audio_manager_get_locked(), which
can return NULL when the requested id does not exist. The returned
pointer is dereferenced unconditionally via kobject_get(), leading to a
NULL pointer dereference.

Only take a kobject reference when the module is found.

Subject: [PATCH v1 2/2] staging: greybus: audio: drop stale TODO in module
 release

Modules are removed from modules_list in gb_audio_manager_remove() and
gb_audio_manager_remove_all() before kobject_put(). The TODO suggesting
list deletion in the kobject release callback is stale and misleading.

I don't think the gb_audio_manager_get_module() function is ever called.

Otherwise probably this would need a Fixes tag.
