V4L/DVB: budget: Oops: "BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference"
commit 6f550dc08369ee0bc6402963c377e65f0f2e3b71 upstream. Never call dvb_frontend_detach if we failed to attach a frontend. This fixes the following oops, which will be triggered by a missing stv090x module: [ 8.172997] DVB: registering new adapter (TT-Budget S2-1600 PCI) [ 8.209018] adapter has MAC addr = 00:d0:5c:cc:a7:29 [ 8.328665] Intel ICH 0000:00:1f.5: PCI INT B -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 [ 8.328753] Intel ICH 0000:00:1f.5: setting latency timer to 64 [ 8.562047] DVB: Unable to find symbol stv090x_attach() [ 8.562117] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000ac [ 8.562239] IP: [<e08b04a3>] dvb_frontend_detach+0x4/0x67 [dvb_core] Ref http://bugs.debian.org/575207 Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
