>From Daniel Kwon <dkwon@xxxxxxxxxx>

The system was crashed due to invalid memory access while trying to access
auxiliary device.

It was trying to open '/dev/ipmi0', but as no entry in aux_dir, it returned
NULL from 'idr_find()'. This drm_dp_aux_dev_get_by_minor() should have done a
check on this, but had failed to do it.

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

As the index value was 0 and aux_idr had value 0 for all, it can have value
NULL from idr_find() function, but the below function doesn't check and just
tries to use it.

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

aux_idr = $8 = {

top = 0x0,
id_free = 0x0,

id_free_cnt = 0x0,
cur = 0x0,
lock = {
{
rlock = {
raw_lock = {

}
}
}
}
}
}

63 aux_dev = NULL;
64 mutex_unlock(&aux_idr_mutex);

66 return aux_dev;
67 }
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

To avoid this kinds of situation, we should make a safeguard for the returned
value. Changing the line 62 with the below would do.

62 if (aux_dev && !kref_get_unless_zero(&aux_dev->refcount))
^^^^^^^^^^
>From Tony Camuso <tcamuso@xxxxxxxxxx>
I built a patched kernel for several architectures.
Booted the kernel, and ran the following for 100 iterations.
rmmod ipmi kmods to remove /dev/ipmi0.
Invoked ipmitool
insmod ipmi kmods
Did not see any crashes or call traces.
