Subject: s390/cio: fix driver callback initialization for ccw consoles
From: Sebastian Ott <sebott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 2253e8d79237c69086ded391e6767afe16972527 upstream.
ccw consoles are in use before they can be properly registered with
the driver core. For devices which are in use by a device driver we
rely on the ccw_device's pointer to the driver callbacks to be valid.
For ccw consoles this pointer is NULL until they are registered later
during boot and we dereferenced this pointer. This worked by
chance on 64 bit builds (cdev->drv was NULL but the optional callback
cdev->drv->path_event was also NULL by coincidence) and was unnoticed
until we received reports about boot failures on 31 bit systems.
Fix it by initializing the driver pointer for ccw consoles.
