Subject: staging: comedi: make determination of read or write subdevice safer
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=63ab039511509739f881acfb99aef76b772e35a2;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

staging: comedi: make determination of read or write subdevice safer

`comedi_read_subdevice()` and `comedi_write_subdevice()` respectively
determine the read and write subdevice to use for a comedi device,
depending on a minor device number passed in.  The comedi device has a
main "board" minor device number and may also have dynamically assigned,
subdevice-specific minor device numbers, in a range of numbers shared by
all comedi devices.  If the minor device number is within the range of
subdevice-specific minor device numbers, both functions call
`comedi_subdevice_from_minor()` to determine what subdevice is
associated with the minor device number (if any) and then check the
subdevice belongs to the comedi device.  Since the subdevice might
belong to a different comedi device, the check is not protected against
the subdevice being freed.  Perform the check in
`comedi_subdevice_from_minor()` instead, where it is protected against
the subdevice being freed.  Make it return `NULL` if the subdevice does
not belong to the device.
