[PATCH] platform/chrome: cros_ec_typec: zero out stale pointers
From: Victor Ding
Date: Tue Dec 06 2022 - 23:02:50 EST
`cros_typec_get_switch_handles` allocates several pointers when
obtaining four handles. These pointers are all freed if failing to
obtain any of the four handles; therefore, pointers in `port` becomes
stale. The stale pointers eventually cause use-after-free or double in
later code paths.
This patch proposes to elimite these stale pointers by zeroing them out
right after they are freed.
