[PATCH 1/5] leds: leds-st1202: fix NULL pointer access on race condition

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

 



st1202_dt_init() calls devm_led_classdev_register_ext() before the
internal data structures are properly setup, so the leds become visible
to user space while being partially initialized, leading to a window
where trying to access them causes a NULL pointer access.

This change moves devm_led_classdev_register_ext() to the last thing to
happen during initialization to eliminate it.
