[PATCH 3.2 021/140] ALSA: seq: Remove spurious WARN_ON() at timer check
From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Wed Feb 28 2018 - 11:26:21 EST
3.2.100-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>
commit 43a3542870328601be02fcc9d27b09db467336ef upstream.
The use of snd_BUG_ON() in ALSA sequencer timer may lead to a spurious
WARN_ON() when a slave timer is deployed as its backend and a
corresponding master timer stops meanwhile. The symptom was triggered
by syzkaller spontaneously.
Since the NULL timer is valid there, rip off snd_BUG_ON().
