From: Selvan Mani Date: Wed, 7 Nov 2012 13:03:37 +0000 (-0700) Subject: mtip32xx: fix potential crash on SEC_ERASE_UNIT X-Git-Tag: next-20121112~60^2~5^2~11 X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0c24ac06ed56373d6d5b7a5f29ada6f3af7555ee;p=karo-tx-linux.git mtip32xx: fix potential crash on SEC_ERASE_UNIT The mtip driver lifted this code from elsewhere and then added a special handling check for SEC_ERASE_UNIT. If the caller tries to do a security erase but passes no output data for the command then outbuf is not allocated and the driver duly explodes.
