Hi Maximilian,

Commit f69952a4dc1e ("media: subdev: add active state to struct
v4l2_subdev") introduced the active_state member to struct v4l2_subdev.
This state needs to be allocated via v4l2_subdev_init_finalize(). The
intel-ipu3 driver unfortunately does not do that, due to which,

That is fine, a driver only needs to allocate the active state if it uses
the active state.

active_state is NULL and we run into an oops (NULL pointer dereference)
when that state is accessed.

In particular, this happens subdev in IOCTLs as commit 3cc7a4bbc381
("media: subdev: pass also the active state to subdevs from ioctls")
passes that state on to the subdev IOCTLs. An example scenario where
this happens is running libcamera's qcam or cam on a device with IPU3,
for example the Microsoft Surface Book 2. In this case, the oops is
reproducibly in v4l2_subdev_get_try_crop(), called via
imgu_subdev_set_selection().

To fix this, allocate the active_state member via
v4l2_subdev_init_finalize().

This is not a correct fix. Sakari has sent (and maybe pushed?) this:
