Hello,
I'm hitting this while fuzzing the kernel with Trinity:
The patch below fixes a clear bug in the code path. Could you check whether it'll fit?
thanks,

From: Takashi Iwai tiwai@suse.de Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: seq: Fix missing error handling in snd_seq_timer_open()
snd_seq_timer_open() didn't catch the whole error path but let through if the timer id is a slave. This may lead to Oops by accessing the uninitialized pointer.

Confirmed, this fixes the bug. Thanks!

Thanks for a quick check! I merged the patch now.
