Subject: [PATCH 1/6] HID: picoLCD: prevent NULL pointer dereferences
Date: Sun, 19 Aug 2012 19:31:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120819193123.4f8200a6@neptune.home> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20120819192859.74136bb0@neptune.home

Driver code expects to get access to struct picolcd_data from hiddev
and is not prepared to find a NULL pointer there. Most prominent
candidate to trip on it is picolcd_fb_deferred_io().
Delay removing struct picolcd_data from hiddev until all sub-devices
have been unregistered.
