From 3262ad824307c275922161e82c2db1458822f28c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Baxter Date: Thu, 8 Sep 2016 11:18:16 +0200 Subject: usb: gadget: f_fs: Stop ffs_closed NULL pointer dereference The struct ffs_data::private_data has a pointer to ffs_dev stored in it during the ffs_fs_mount() function however it is not cleared when the ffs_dev is freed later which causes the ffs_closed function to crash with "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference" error when using the data in ffs_data::private_data. This clears this pointer during the ffs_free_dev clean up function.
