[PATCH 3.16 109/366] ASoC: dapm: delete dapm_kcontrol_data paths list before freeing it

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sun Nov 11 2018 - 15:06:30 EST


3.16.61-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit ff2faf1289c1f81b5b26b9451dd1c2006aac8db8 upstream.

dapm_kcontrol_data is freed as part of dapm_kcontrol_free(), leaving the
paths pointer dangling in the list.

This leads to system crash when we try to unload and reload sound card.
I hit this bug during ADSP crash/reboot test case on Dragon board DB410c.

Without this patch, on SLAB Poisoning enabled build, kernel crashes with
"BUG kmalloc-128 (Tainted: G W ): Poison overwritten"
