4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Stephen Warren <swarren@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit daa35bd95634a2a2d72d1049c93576a02711cb1a upstream.
When the gadget serial device has no associated TTY, do not pass any
received data into the TTY layer for processing; simply drop it instead.
This prevents the TTY layer from calling back into the gadget serial
driver, which will then crash in e.g. gs_write_room() due to lack of
gadget serial device to TTY association (i.e. a NULL pointer dereference).
