From: Mayank Rana <mrana@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit f247f0a82a4f8c3bfed178d8fd9e069d1424ee4e upstream. If ucsi_init() fails for some reason (e.g. ucsi_register_port() fails or general communication failure to the PPM), particularly at any point after the GET_CAPABILITY command had been issued, this results in unwinding the initialization and returning an error. However the ucsi structure's ucsi_capability member retains its current value, including likely a non-zero num_connectors. And because ucsi_init() itself is done in a workqueue a UCSI interface driver will be unaware that it failed and may think the ucsi_register() call was completely successful. Later, if ucsi_unregister() is called, due to this stale ucsi->cap value it would try to access the items in the ucsi->connector array which might not be in a proper state or not even allocated at all and results in NULL or invalid pointer dereference. Fix this by clearing the ucsi->cap value to 0 during the error path of ucsi_init() in order to prevent a later ucsi_unregister() from entering the connector cleanup loop.
