4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: fred gao <fred.gao@xxxxxxxxx> commit ffeaf9aaf97b4bdaf114d6df52f800d71918768c upstream. once error happens in shadow_indirect_ctx function, the variable wa_ctx->indirect_ctx.obj is not initialized but accessed, so the kernel null point panic occurs.
