Subject: media: venus: don't de-reference NULL pointers at IRQ time
X-Git-Tag: v5.10.241~41
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=10ec31df5e0a7291cdebdd96f9812b8640e61b76;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git

media: venus: don't de-reference NULL pointers at IRQ time

[ Upstream commit 686ee9b6253f9b6d7f1151e73114698940cc0894 ]

Smatch is warning that:
	drivers/media/platform/qcom/venus/hfi_venus.c:1100 venus_isr() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'hdev' (see line 1097)

The logic basically does:
	hdev = to_hfi_priv(core);

with is translated to:
	hdev = core->priv;

If the IRQ code can receive a NULL pointer for hdev, there's
a bug there, as it will first try to de-reference the pointer,
and then check if it is null.

After looking at the code, it seems that this indeed can happen:
Basically, the venus IRQ thread is started with:
	devm_request_threaded_irq()
So, it will only be freed after the driver unbinds.

In order to prevent the IRQ code to work with freed data,
the logic at venus_hfi_destroy() sets core->priv to NULL,
which would make the IRQ code to ignore any pending IRQs.

There is, however a race condition, as core->priv is set
to NULL only after being freed. So, we need also to move the
core->priv = NULL to happen earlier.
