These two bug are here: list_for_each_entry_safe_continue(w, n, list, power_list); list_for_each_entry_safe_continue(w, n, list, power_list); After the list_for_each_entry_safe_continue() exits, the list iterator will always be a bogus pointer which point to an invalid struct objdect containing HEAD member. The funciton poniter 'w->event' will be a invalid value which can lead to a control-flow hijack if the 'w' can be controlled. The original intention was to continue the outer list_for_each_entry_safe() loop with the same entry if w->event is NULL, but misunderstanding the meaning of list_for_each_entry_safe_continue(). So just add a 'continue;' to fix the bug.
