[added to the 3.18 stable tree] ALSA: rawmidi: Remove kernel WARNING for NULL user-space buffer check

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

 



From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit cc85f7a634cfaf9f0713c6aa06d08817424db37a ]

NULL user-space buffer can be passed even in a normal path, thus it's
not good to spew a kernel warning with stack trace at each time.
Just drop snd_BUG_ON() macro usage there.
