This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled staging: vchiq_arm: Get the rid off struct vchiq_2835_state to the 6.1-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: staging-vchiq_arm-get-the-rid-off-struct-vchiq_2835_.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 2af04268b8207380cc14a7229a4bedb1ffe0e384 Author: Stefan Wahren <wahrenst@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jun 21 15:19:53 2024 +0200 staging: vchiq_arm: Get the rid off struct vchiq_2835_state [ Upstream commit 4e2766102da632f26341d5539519b0abf73df887 ] The whole benefit of this encapsulating struct is questionable. It just stores a flag to signalize the init state of vchiq_arm_state. Beside the fact this flag is set too soon, the access to uninitialized members should be avoided. So initialize vchiq_arm_state properly before assign it directly to vchiq_state.
