[PATCH V2] video: fbdev: w100fb: Fix a potential double free.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Some memory is vmalloc'ed in the 'w100fb_save_vidmem' function and freed in
the 'w100fb_restore_vidmem' function. (these functions are called
respectively from the 'suspend' and the 'resume' functions)

However, it is also freed in the 'remove' function.

In order to avoid a potential double free, set the corresponding pointer
to NULL once freed in the 'w100fb_restore_vidmem' function.

v2: - Add Cc: tags
    - Reword the commit message to give the names of the functions that
      allocate and free the memory. These functions are called from the
      suspend and resume function.
