[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 177/211] TPM: Avoid reference to potentially freed memory

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Jan 05 2016 - 15:00:31 EST


4.2.8-ckt1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit eb8ed1eb9a158c460d10205eaff71fd4ac67c160 upstream.

Reference to the 'np' node is dropped before dereferencing the 'sizep' and
'basep' pointers, which could by then point to junk if the node has been
freed.

Refactor code to call 'of_node_put' later.

Fixes: c5df39262dd5 ("drivers/char/tpm: Add securityfs support for event log")
