[PATCH]ALSA: HDA: Fix Oops caused by dereference NULL pointer

From: Wang YanQing
Date: Mon May 06 2013 - 23:27:53 EST


The interrupt handler azx_interrupt will call azx_update_rirb,
which may call snd_hda_queue_unsol_event, snd_hda_queue_unsol_event
will dereference chip->bus pointer.

The problem is we alloc chip->bus in azx_codec_create
which will be called after we enable IRQ and enable unsolicited
event in azx_probe.

This will cause Oops due dereference NULL pointer. I meet it, good luck:)
