commit e30cc79cc80fd919b697a15c5000d9f57487de8e upstream. Syzbot reports a NULL-ptr deref in the kref_put() call: BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in media_request_put drivers/media/mc/mc-request.c:81 [inline] kref_put include/linux/kref.h:64 [inline] media_request_put drivers/media/mc/mc-request.c:81 [inline] media_request_close+0x4d/0x170 drivers/media/mc/mc-request.c:89 __fput+0x2ed/0x750 fs/file_table.c:281 task_work_run+0x147/0x1d0 kernel/task_work.c:123 tracehook_notify_resume include/linux/tracehook.h:188 [inline] exit_to_usermode_loop arch/x86/entry/common.c:165 [inline] prepare_exit_to_usermode+0x48e/0x600 arch/x86/entry/common.c:196 What led to this crash was an injected memory allocation failure in media_request_alloc(): FAULT_INJECTION: forcing a failure. name failslab, interval 1, probability 0, space 0, times 0 should_failslab+0x5/0x20 kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x57/0x300 ? anon_inode_getfile+0xe5/0x170 media_request_alloc+0x339/0x440 media_device_request_alloc+0x94/0xc0 media_device_ioctl+0x1fb/0x330 ? do_vfs_ioctl+0x6ea/0x1a00 ? media_ioctl+0x101/0x120 ? __media_device_usb_init+0x430/0x430 ? media_poll+0x110/0x110 __se_sys_ioctl+0xf9/0x160 do_syscall_64+0xf3/0x1b0 When that allocation fails, filp->private_data is left uninitialized which media_request_close() does not expect and crashes. To avoid this, reorder media_request_alloc() such that allocating the struct file happens as the last step thus media_request_close() will no longer get called for a partially created media request.

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.
