[PATCH 4.4 13/43] regulator: core: Clear the supply pointer if enabling fails

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

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jon Hunter <jonathanh@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8e5356a73604f53da6a1e0756727cb8f9f7bba17 upstream.

During the resolution of a regulator's supply, we may attempt to enable
the supply if the regulator itself is already enabled. If enabling the
supply fails, then we will call _regulator_put() for the supply.
However, the pointer to the supply has not been cleared for the
regulator and this will cause a crash if we then unregister the
regulator and attempt to call regulator_put() a second time for the
supply. Fix this by clearing the supply pointer if enabling the supply
after fails when resolving the supply for a regulator.
