[PATCH v3 2/3] iio: temperature: hid-sensor-temperature: Use per-instance callbacks

From: Christopher Hoover

Date: Sun Oct 18 2026 - 22:46:07 EST


hid-sensor-temperature keeps a single static struct
hid_sensor_hub_callbacks for all instances and overwrites its pdev in
every probe. With two temperature sensors, input reports for one are
delivered with the other's platform device; once that device is
removed, platform_get_drvdata() returns NULL and
temperature_capture_sample() dereferences it:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000003a8
RIP: 0010:temperature_capture_sample+0xd/0x50 [hid_sensor_temperature]

The oops happens in sensor_hub_raw_event() with the hub's spinlock
held, so the hub's removal then hangs. It reproduces with two uhid
devices that each declare a temperature sensor, one destroyed while
the other still sends input reports.

Keep the callbacks in struct temperature_state, as the other HID
sensor drivers (accel, gyro, als, ...) do.

Fixes: 59d0f2da3569 ("iio: hid: Add temperature sensor support")
