In build_adc_controls(), there is an if statement on line 773 to check
whether ak->adc_info is NULL:
if (! ak->adc_info ||
! ak->adc_info[mixer_ch].switch_name)
When ak->adc_info is NULL, it is used on line 792:
knew.name = ak->adc_info[mixer_ch].selector_name;
Thus, a possible null-pointer dereference may occur.
To fix this bug, referring to lines 773 and 774, ak->adc_info
and ak->adc_info[mixer_ch].selector_name are checked before being used.
This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
