Subject: [PATCH] usb: gadget: u_audio: Clear uac pointer when freed.
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2024 15:20:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CO1PR17MB54194226DA08BFC9EBD8C163E1172@CO1PR17MB5419.namprd17.prod.outlook.com> (raw)


This prevents use of a stale pointer if functions are called after
g_cleanup that shouldn't be. This doesn't fix any races, but converts
a possibly silent kernel memory corruption into an obvious NULL pointer
dereference report.

Fixes: eb9fecb9e69b ("usb: gadget: f_uac2: split out audio core")
