[PATCH] soc: soc-dapm: fix two incorrect uses of list iterator
These two bug are here: list_for_each_entry_safe_continue(w, n, list, power_list); list_for_each_entry_safe_continue(w, n, list, power_list);
After the list_for_each_entry_safe_continue() exits, the list iterator will always be a bogus pointer which point to an invalid struct objdect containing HEAD member. The funciton poniter 'w->event' will be a invalid value which can lead to a control-flow hijack if the 'w' can be controlled.
The original intention was to break the outer list_for_each_entry_safe() loop if w->event is NULL, but forgot to *break* switch statement first. So just add a break to fix the bug.

This doesn't make much sense. The intent here seems to clearly be to continue; the loop but this doesn't do that - instead it appears that continue doesn't actually do the equivalent of a continue but rather skips over an entry. This should instead be replaced with a plain continue statement.
THe naming of _continue() needs fixing I think - it's just asking to be a bug. Fortunately there's very few users.

Yes, you are right. Sorry for a slip of the pen in commit message: should be "to *continue* the outer list_for_each_entry_safe() loop" not "to break ...".
I have resend a PATCH v2 for the fix as you suggested, and cc you. Thank you.
