[PATCH] soundwire: stream: fix NULL pointer dereference for multi_link

From: Krzysztof Kozlowski
Date: Fri Nov 24 2023 - 13:01:45 EST


If bus is marked as multi_link, but number of masters in the stream is
not higher than bus->hw_sync_min_links (bus->multi_link && m_rt_count >=
bus->hw_sync_min_links), bank switching should not happen. The first
part of do_bank_switch() code properly takes these conditions into
account, but second part (sdw_ml_sync_bank_switch()) relies purely on
bus->multi_link property. This is not balanced and leads to NULL
pointer dereference:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000
