This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled misc: fastrpc: fix an incorrect NULL check on list iterator to the 5.18-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: misc-fastrpc-fix-an-incorrect-null-check-on-list-ite.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.18 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d725723e21838c0734878144d0b535d2d8b5023f Author: Xiaomeng Tong <xiam0nd.tong@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun Mar 27 14:22:02 2022 +0800 misc: fastrpc: fix an incorrect NULL check on list iterator [ Upstream commit 5ac11fe03a0a83042d1a040dbce4fa2fb5521e23 ] The bug is here: if (!buf) { The list iterator value 'buf' will *always* be set and non-NULL by list_for_each_entry(), so it is incorrect to assume that the iterator value will be NULL if the list is empty (in this case, the check 'if (!buf) {' will always be false and never exit expectly). To fix the bug, use a new variable 'iter' as the list iterator, while use the original variable 'buf' as a dedicated pointer to point to the found element.
