[PATCH 4.1 54/78] ALSA: hda: fix possible NULL dereference

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Sep 11 2015 - 18:51:08 EST


4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Markus Osterhoff <linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit c7e69ae6b4ff49edf50180c0a32f3dd9d7967e31 upstream.

After a for-loop was replaced by list_for_each_entry, see
Commit bbbc7e8502c9 ("ALSA: hda - Allocate hda_pcm objects dynamically"),
Commit 751e2216899c ("ALSA: hda: fix possible null dereference"),
a possible NULL pointer dereference has been introduced; this patch adds
the NULL check on pcm->pcm, while leaving a potentially superfluous
check on pcm itself untouched.
