This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled usb: core: urb: fix URB structure initialization function to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 1cd17f7f0def31e3695501c4f86cd3faf8489840 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Emiliano Ingrassia <ingrassia@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2019 17:03:55 +0100 Subject: usb: core: urb: fix URB structure initialization function Explicitly initialize URB structure urb_list field in usb_init_urb(). This field can be potentially accessed uninitialized and its initialization is coherent with the usage of list_del_init() in usb_hcd_unlink_urb_from_ep() and usb_giveback_urb_bh() and its explicit initialization in usb_hcd_submit_urb() error path.
