From: Nikolay Borisov Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2016 09:54:57 +0000 (+0100) Subject: quota: Fix possible GPF due to uninitialised pointers X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~176^2~4^2~50^2~68 X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6b3ae95f03d9ff3877549e601c88f7650e3ada29;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git quota: Fix possible GPF due to uninitialised pointers commit ab73ef46398e2c0159f3a71de834586422d2a44a upstream. When dqget() in __dquot_initialize() fails e.g. due to IO error, __dquot_initialize() will pass an array of uninitialized pointers to dqput_all() and thus can lead to deference of random data. Fix the problem by properly initializing the array.
