Subject: [PATCH 6/7] v4l2-device: v4l2_device_release_subdev_node can't reference sd
Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2019 15:21:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190221142148.3412-7-hverkuil-cisco@xs4all.nl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190221142148.3412-1-hverkuil-cisco@xs4all.nl>

When the v4l-subdev device node is released it calls the
v4l2_device_release_subdev_node() function which sets sd->devnode
to NULL.

However, the v4l2_subdev struct may already be released causing this
to write in freed memory.

Instead just use the regular video_device_release release function
(just calls kfree) and set sd->devnode to NULL right after the
video_unregister_device() call.
