4.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit aa1f058d7d9244423b8c5a75b9484b1115df7f02 upstream. Fix below NULL pointer dereference. we set ci->roles[CI_ROLE_GADGET] too early in ci_hdrc_gadget_init(), if udc_start() fails due to some reason, the ci->roles[CI_ROLE_GADGET] check in ci_hdrc_gadget_destroy can't protect us. We fix this issue by only setting ci->roles[CI_ROLE_GADGET] if udc_start() succeed. [ 1.398550] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 ...
