[PATCH 4.5 80/87] thunderbolt: Fix double free of drom buffer

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon May 30 2016 - 17:09:33 EST


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

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

From: Andreas Noever <andreas.noever@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 2ffa9a5d76a75abbc1f95c17959fced666095bdd upstream.

If tb_drom_read() fails, sw->drom is freed but not set to NULL. sw->drom
is then freed again in the error path of tb_switch_alloc().

The bug can be triggered by unplugging a thunderbolt device shortly after
it is detected by the thunderbolt driver.

Clear sw->drom if tb_drom_read() fails.
