commit ff2faf1289c1f81b5b26b9451dd1c2006aac8db8 upstream. dapm_kcontrol_data is freed as part of dapm_kcontrol_free(), leaving the paths pointer dangling in the list. This leads to system crash when we try to unload and reload sound card. I hit this bug during ADSP crash/reboot test case on Dragon board DB410c. Without this patch, on SLAB Poisoning enabled build, kernel crashes with "BUG kmalloc-128 (Tainted: G W ): Poison overwritten" Signed-off-by: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
