4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Shuah Khan (Samsung OSG) <shuah@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c171654caa875919be3c533d3518da8be5be966e upstream. stub_probe() calls put_busid_priv() in an error path when device isn't found in the busid_table. Fix it by making put_busid_priv() safe to be called with null struct bus_id_priv pointer. This problem happens when "usbip bind" is run without loading usbip_host driver and then running modprobe. The first failed bind attempt unbinds the device from the original driver and when usbip_host is modprobed, stub_probe() runs and doesn't find the device in its busid table and calls put_busid_priv(0 with null bus_id_priv pointer. usbip-host 3-10.2: 3-10.2 is not in match_busid table... skip!
