From 406636340c301b46062b22f94e3815ef767bd6a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2012 06:17:26 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] caif_usb: Check driver name before reading driver state in netdev notifier In cfusbl_device_notify(), the usbnet and usbdev variables are initialised before the driver name has been checked. In case the device's driver is not cdc_ncm, this may result in reading beyond the end of the netdev private area. Move the initialisation below the driver name check.
