Re: NULL pointer dereference when writing fuzzed data to /dev/uhid

[Roderick Colenbrander]

Thanks, it seems the tests created a Buzz controller. It is
sony_led_init (called from sony_input_configured), which calls
hid_validate_values. It is hid_validate_values, which is unhappy due
to obviously corrupted reports.

I'm not too familiar with hid_validate_values, but it seems to access
a bunch of data structures on the HID device. The code probably makes
some assumptions. Fixing this issue requires some more sanity
checking, if it is worth it.

Thanks,
Roderick
