list_for_each_entry_safe() is not safe for deleting entries from the list if the spin lock, which protects it, is released and reacquired during the list iteration. Fix this issue by replacing this construction with a simple check if list is empty and removing the first entry in each iteration. This is almost equivalent to a revert of the commit mentioned in the Fixes: tag. This patch fixes following issue: --->8--- Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000104 pgd = (ptrval) [00000104] *pgd=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 817 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 84 Comm: kworker/1:1 Not tainted 4.20.0-rc2-next-20181114-00009-g8266b35ec404 #1061 Hardware name: SAMSUNG EXYNOS (Flattened Device Tree) Workqueue: events eth_work PC is at rx_fill+0x60/0xac LR is at _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x50/0x5c pc : [<c065fee0>] lr : [<c0a056b8>] psr: 80000093 sp : ee7fbee8 ip : 00000100 fp : 00000000 r10: 006000c0 r9 : c10b0ab0 r8 : ee7eb5c0 r7 : ee7eb614 r6 : ee7eb5ec r5 : 000000dc r4 : ee12ac00 r3 : ee12ac24 r2 : 00000200 r1 : 60000013 r0 : ee7eb5ec Flags: Nzcv IRQs off FIQs on Mode SVC_32 ISA ARM Segment none Control: 10c5387d Table: 6d5dc04a DAC: 00000051 Process kworker/1:1 (pid: 84, stack limit = 0x(ptrval)) Stack: (0xee7fbee8 to 0xee7fc000) ...
