Subject: [PATCH 4.9 23/36] cdrom: gdrom: initialize global variable at init time
Date: Mon, 24 May 2021 17:25:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210524152324.912387378@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210524152324.158146731@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 9183f01b5e6e32eb3f17b5f3f8d5ad5ac9786c49 upstream.

As Peter points out, if we were to disconnect and then reconnect this
driver from a device, the "global" state of the device would contain odd
values and could cause problems.  Fix this up by just initializing the
whole thing to 0 at probe() time.

Ideally this would be a per-device variable, but given the age and the
total lack of users of it, that would require a lot of s/./->/g changes
for really no good reason.
