Subject: [PATCH] iio: common: st_sensors: Fix use of uninitialize device
structs
From: Maud Spierings <maudspierings@...ontroll.com>
Throughout the various probe functions &indio_dev->dev is used before it
is initialized. This caused a kernel panic in st_sensors_power_enable
when the call to devm_regulator_bulk_get_enable() fails and then calls
dev_err_probe() with the uninitialized device.
This seems to only cause a panic with dev_err_probe(), dev_err,
dev_warn and dev_info don't seem to cause a panic, but are fixed
as well.
---
When I search for general &indio_dev->dev usage, I see quite a lot more
hits, but I am not sure if there are issues with those too.
This issue has existed for a long time it seems and therefore it is
nearly impossible to find a proper fixes tag. I would love to see it at
least backported to 6.12 as that is where I encountered it, and I
believe the patch should apply without conflicts.
The investigation into this issue can be found in this thread [1]
