Subject: [PATCH 4.4 19/31] cdrom: gdrom: initialize global variable at init time
Date: Mon, 24 May 2021 17:25:02 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210524152323.549540750@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210524152322.919918360@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
commit 9183f01b5e6e32eb3f17b5f3f8d5ad5ac9786c49 upstream.
As Peter points out, if we were to disconnect and then reconnect this
driver from a device, the "global" state of the device would contain odd
values and could cause problems. Fix this up by just initializing the
whole thing to 0 at probe() time.
Ideally this would be a per-device variable, but given the age and the
total lack of users of it, that would require a lot of s/./->/g changes
for really no good reason.
