Subject: firmware: Always initialize the fw_priv list object
X-Git-Tag: v4.19-rc7~1^2~2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7012040576c6ae25a47035659ee48673612c2c27;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

firmware: Always initialize the fw_priv list object

When freeing the fw_priv the item is taken off the list. This causes an
oops in the FW_OPT_NOCACHE case as the list object is not initialized.

Make sure to initialize the list object regardless of this flag.
