From cef7f62d5881e886cd514436bc386a7202af25f1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolai Stange Date: Tue, 15 Mar 2016 13:35:06 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] sound/usb: fix NULL dereference in usb_audio_probe() With commit aebb2b89bff0 ("[media] sound/usb: Use Media Controller API to share media resources") an access to quirk->media_device without checking for quirk != NULL has been introduced in usb_audio_probe(). With a Plantronics USB headset (device ID 0x047f:0xc010) attached, this results in the following splat at boot time: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000014 IP: [] usb_audio_probe+0x2cc/0x9a0 [snd_usb_audio] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP [...] CPU: 2 PID: 696 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 4.5.0-next-20160315 #13 Hardware name: Dell Inc.

In analogy to the other accesses to members of quirk in usb_audio_probe(), check for quirk != NULL before accessing its ->media_device.
