From: Michal Nazarewicz <mina86@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit f0688c8b81d2ea239c3fb0b848f623b579238d99 upstream. If the descriptors do not need any strings and user space sends empty set of strings, the ffs->stringtabs field remains NULL. Thus *ffs->stringtabs in functionfs_bind leads to a NULL pointer dereferenece. The bug was introduced by commit [fd7c9a007f: “use usb_string_ids_n()”]. While at it, remove double initialisation of lang local variable in that function. ffs->strings_count does not need to be checked in any way since in the above scenario it will remain zero and usb_string_ids_n() is a no-operation when colled with 0 argument.
