[alsa-devel] UBSAN bug in hda_generic.c

[Bob Copeland]

Hi,

I have UBSAN reporting an out-of-bounds array access (see below) on my
machine.  The following patch fixes the warning for me, but not sure if
that is just papering over some other bug.  Thanks in advance for looking!

Fix by checking path->depth before use.
