[PATCH 4.14 177/195] pktcdvd: Fix a recently introduced NULL pointer dereference

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Feb 15 2018 - 12:11:11 EST


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

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

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@xxxxxxx>

commit 882d4171a8950646413b1a3cbe0e4a6a612fe82e upstream.

Call bdev_get_queue(bdev) after bdev->bd_disk has been initialized
instead of just before that pointer has been initialized. This patch
avoids that the following command

pktsetup 1 /dev/sr0

triggers the following kernel crash:
