Subject: [PATCH 1/2] iio: mma8452: Fix trigger reference couting
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2021 11:26:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211024092700.6844-1-lars@metafoo.de> (raw)

The mma8452 driver directly assigns a trigger to the struct iio_dev. The
IIO core when done using this trigger will call `iio_trigger_put()` to drop
the reference count by 1.

Without the matching `iio_trigger_get()` in the driver the reference count
can reach 0 too early, the trigger gets freed while still in use and a
use-after-free occurs.

Fix this by getting a reference to the trigger before assigning it to the
IIO device.

Fixes: ae6d9ce05691 ("iio: mma8452: Add support for interrupt driven triggers.")
