[Patch V2] v4l2-core: fix use-after-free error

From: Sumit Gupta
Date: Thu Apr 11 2019 - 12:01:29 EST


From: sumitg <sumitg@xxxxxxxxxx>

Fixing use-after-free within __v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup().
Memory is being freed with kfree(new_ref) for duplicate
control reference entry but cluster is still referring
to the duplicate entry. Change done to update ctrl->cluster
only when new control reference is added. Also, checking if
ctrl->ncontrols is non-zero before accessing controls from
cluster pointer to avoid illegal access when cluster has
zero controls.
