From 3e75362130f7535081b1e72911404d5f9030df82 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Toshi Kani Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2013 10:47:13 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] ACPI / memhotplug: Fix a stale pointer in error path commit d19f503e22316a84c39bc19445e0e4fdd49b3532 upstream. device->driver_data needs to be cleared when releasing its data, mem_device, in an error path of acpi_memory_device_add(). The function evaluates the _CRS of memory device objects, and fails when it gets an unexpected resource or cannot allocate memory. A kernel crash or data corruption may occur when the kernel accesses the stale pointer. Signed-off-by: Toshi Kani Reviewed-by: Yasuaki Ishimatsu Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
