[PATCH] usb: gadget: pch_udc: don't update td->next after it has been released to the pool

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

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Writing to td->next should be avoided after td has been freed using
dma_pool_free. The intent was to nullify the next pointer, but this
is potentially dangerous once it is back in the pool. Remove it.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1091173 ("Write tp pointer after free")
