Hi Tetsuo,

I didn't catch the location. As long as "htc_handle->drv_priv = priv;" is done
before complete_all(&hif_dev->fw_done) is done, is something wrong?


I don't really remember why I said that, but looks like I just haven't opened callbacks' code.

My point was that my patch does not change the logic, but only fixes 2 problems: UAF and NULL deref.




With regards,
Pavel Skripkin
