[PATCH v2] drm/mediatek: Clean dangling pointer on bind error path

[PATCH v2] drm/mediatek: Clean dangling pointer on bind error path

[Nícolas F. R. A. Prado]

mtk_drm_bind() can fail, in which case drm_dev_put() is called,
destroying the drm_device object. However a pointer to it was still
being held in the private object, and that pointer would be passed along
to DRM in mtk_drm_sys_prepare() if a suspend were triggered at that
point, resulting in a panic. Clean the pointer when destroying the
object in the error path to prevent this from happening.

Sorry for not noticing that in v1, but I've rechecked this function and, while this
commit does indeed actually solve the described issue, I think it's incomplete.

A few lines before, we have a loop that sets

		private->all_drm_private[i]->drm = drm;

...so here you should do...

	private->drm = NULL;

	while (i--) /* a for loop will also do, your choice */
		private->all_drm_private[i]->drm = NULL;
		
That makes sure that you cleanup *everything* :-)

Cheers,
Angelo

Actually that line only exists with [1] applied, but that commit hasn't been
merged as of yet. I debated whether it would be better to send this fix as is,
or ask Nancy Lin to add the tweaked fix you mention below to that series, but
sending this fix as is seemed better since it can be backported to older kernel
versions.

So assuming this commit gets merged first, Nancy should make that tweak you
mentioned below to ensure all the pointers are zeroed out, which is why I've
added Nancy to CC. (As a side note, given that only the mmsys with drm_master =
true would ever call the drm suspend helper, even this patch as is is enough to
avoid the panic even with that series applied, still we should zero out all
pointers for good measure)

Actually that line only exists with [1] applied, but that commit hasn't been
merged as of yet. I debated whether it would be better to send this fix as is,
or ask Nancy Lin to add the tweaked fix you mention below to that series, but
sending this fix as is seemed better since it can be backported to older kernel
versions.

So assuming this commit gets merged first, Nancy should make that tweak you
mentioned below to ensure all the pointers are zeroed out, which is why I've
added Nancy to CC. (As a side note, given that only the mmsys with drm_master =
true would ever call the drm suspend helper, even this patch as is is enough to
avoid the panic even with that series applied, still we should zero out all
pointers for good measure)

Sorry about that, you're right - the proposed fix is for the commit you
