Subject: [ 5/5] media: mantis: fix silly crash case
Date: Wed, 22 May 2013 15:18:11 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130522221331.907095720@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130522221330.720801923@linuxfoundation.org>

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com>

commit e1d45ae10aea8e8a403e5d96bf5902ee670007ff upstream.

If we set mantis->fe to NULL on an error its not a good idea to then try
passing NULL to the unregister paths and oopsing really.
