Hello!

This is an experimental semi-automated report about issues detected by
Coverity from a scan of next-20230111 as part of the linux-next scan project:

    291e9da91403 ("ALSA: usb-audio: Always initialize fixed_rate in snd_usb_find_implicit_fb_sync_format()")

Coverity reported the following:

*** CID 1530547:  Null pointer dereferences  (REVERSE_INULL)
sound/usb/pcm.c:166 in snd_usb_pcm_has_fixed_rate()
160     bool snd_usb_pcm_has_fixed_rate(struct snd_usb_substream *subs)
161     {
162     	const struct audioformat *fp;
163     	struct snd_usb_audio *chip = subs->stream->chip;
164     	int rate = -1;
165
vvv     CID 1530547:  Null pointer dereferences  (REVERSE_INULL)
vvv     Null-checking "subs" suggests that it may be null, but it has already been dereferenced on all paths leading to the check.
166     	if (!subs)
167     		return false;
168     	if (!(chip->quirk_flags & QUIRK_FLAG_FIXED_RATE))
169     		return false;
170     	list_for_each_entry(fp, &subs->fmt_list, list) {
171     		if (fp->rates & SNDRV_PCM_RATE_CONTINUOUS)

If this is a false positive, please let us know so we can mark it as
such, or teach the Coverity rules to be smarter. If not, please make
sure fixes get into linux-next. :) For patches fixing this, please
include these lines (but double-check the "Fixes" first):
