[PATCH] ALSA: pcm: Test for "silence" field in struct "pcm_format_data"
From: Fabio M. De Francesco
Date: Fri Apr 08 2022 - 21:27:12 EST
Syzbot reports "KASAN: null-ptr-deref Write in
snd_pcm_format_set_silence".[1]
It is due to missing validation of the "silence" field of struct
"pcm_format_data" in "pcm_formats" array.
Add a test for valid "pat" and, if it is not so, return -EINVAL.
