From 2cc412b513f70ce914a3554a34917f7585a16f04 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Kim, Milo" Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2012 02:24:00 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] iio: inkern: allocate zeroed memory Use kzalloc() rather than kmalloc() for initializing the iio_channel structure. This patch enables the iio_dev and iio_chan_spec are set to NULL. This may prevent the page fault problem because the pointer of iio_chan_spec is initialized as NULL. The iio_chan_spec is updated only in case that the IIO map has specific channel label. When the map has no ADC channel label, then the value of iio_chan_spec remains as invalid pointer. To prevent this problem, the pointer should be initialized as NULL. Signed-off-by: Milo(Woogyom) Kim Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron --- Reading git-format-patch failed
