Subject: [PATCH] touchscreen: ads7846: please don't touch free'd memory
Date: Tue, 18 May 2010 16:46:53 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1274226413-8520-1-git-send-email-khilman@deeprootsystems.com> (raw)

If the _probe() method fails, the 'ts' struct is freed, yet it is
still used as the drvdata passed to suspend/resume/remove methods.
Even though the input device does not get registerd, the driver's
suspend/resume methods still get called as it's a registered SPI
device.  This patch adds sanity checks to these methods to ensure that
drvdata is valid before using it.

Problem discovered when using lockdep since the ts->lock taken in
suspend & resume methods was left pointing into free'd memory if
_probe() fails.
