From 5d92c7c566dc76d96e0e19e481d926bbe6631c1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Niklas Cassel cassel@kernel.org Date: Sat, 29 Jun 2024 14:42:11 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ata: libata-core: Fix null pointer dereference on error
If the ata_port_alloc() call in ata_host_alloc() fails, ata_host_release() will get called.
However, the code in ata_host_release() tries to free ata_port struct members unconditionally, which can lead to the following:

Do not access ata_port struct members unconditionally.
