[RFC][PATCH] x86/hpet: fix NULL pointer dereference in msi_domain_alloc_irqs()

From: Sergey Senozhatsky
Date: Mon May 11 2015 - 07:36:43 EST


Fix the following oops:
hpet_msi_get_hwirq+0x1f/0x27
msi_domain_alloc+0x35/0xfe
? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x16c/0x188
irq_domain_alloc_irqs_recursive+0x51/0x95
__irq_domain_alloc_irqs+0x151/0x223
hpet_assign_irq+0x5d/0x68
hpet_msi_capability_lookup+0x121/0x1cb
? hpet_enable+0x2b4/0x2b4
hpet_late_init+0x5f/0xf2
? hpet_enable+0x2b4/0x2b4
do_one_initcall+0x184/0x199
kernel_init_freeable+0x1af/0x237
? rest_init+0x13a/0x13a
kernel_init+0xe/0xd4
ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70
? rest_init+0x13a/0x13a

since 3cb96f0c97330 (x86/hpet: Enhance HPET IRQ to support hierarchical
irqdomains') hpet_msi_capability_lookup() uses hpet_assign_irq(). the
latter discards `irq_alloc_info info' param and instead passes NULL to
__irq_domain_alloc_irqs() as `arg'. __irq_domain_alloc_irqs() invokes
irq_domain_alloc_irqs_recursive(), which msi_domain_alloc_irqs() and,
eventually, accesses `arg->hpet_index' in hpet_msi_get_hwirq().

directly call __irq_domain_alloc_irqs() in hpet_assign_irq() and pass
correct `arg' to fix the oops.
