component: remove device from master match list on failed add
Calling component_add() may result in the completion of a set of devices, which will try to bring up a master. In bringing the master up, we populate its match array with the current set of children. If binding any of the devices fails, component_add() itself will fail, free the struct component entry, and return to the caller. The now-freed entry is never removed from the master's match array, and will later be used in a futile attempt to bind to freed memory. Bring component_add's behaviour on failure to bring up a master into line with component_del by removing the (to-be-freed) component from the master's match array. The specific case which broke was: - rockchip_drm_drv adds a component master - dwhdmi_rockchip adds a child component in probe (master incomplete) - rockchip_drm_vop adds two children in probe, which completes the set - inside component_add, we try to bring up the master, having populated the master's match array, and fail with EPROBE_DEFER from dwhdmi_rockchip; we delete the putative component - rockchip_drm_vop's probe fails and returns EPROBE_DEFER - we later re-probe rockchip_drm_vop and add the component; the master is complete, so we attempt to bring it up again - walking the match array, we find the previous child, whose master pointer doesn't match (as it has been freed in the meantime) - rockchip_drm_vop probe fails, and will never be attempted again Fixes: ffc30b74fd6d01588bd3fdebc3b1acc0857e6fc8 Signed-off-by: Daniel Stone <daniels@collabora.com> Cc: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Thierry Reding <treding@nvidia.com> Cc: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
