[PATCH v2] fsi: occ: Prevent use after free

Eddie James eajames at linux.ibm.com
Sat May 14 05:44:24 AEST 2022


Use get_device and put_device in the open and close functions to
make sure the device doesn't get freed while a file descriptor is
open.
Also, lock around the freeing of the device buffer and check the
buffer before using it in the submit function.

Changes since v1:
 - Add lock around freeing/nulling the buffer in occ_remove
 - Don't bother checking the buffer in open or in write, only in submit
