The patch

   ASoC: Intel: Skylake: fix invalid memory access due to wrong reference of pointer

has been applied to the asoc tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: Intel: Skylake: fix invalid memory access due to wrong
 reference of pointer

In 'skl_tplg_set_module_init_data()', a pointer to 'params' member of
'struct skl_algo_data' is calculated, then casted to (u32 *) and assigned
to a member of configuration data. The configuration data is passed to the
other functions and used to process intel IPC. In this processing, the
value of member is used to get message data, however this can bring invalid
memory access in 'skl_set_module_params()' as a result of calculation of
a pointer for actual message data.

(sound/soc/intel/skylake/skl-topology.c)
skl_tplg_init_pipe_modules()
->skl_tplg_set_module_init_data() (has this bug)
->skl_tplg_set_module_params()
  (sound/soc/intel/skylake/skl-messages.c)
  ->skl_set_module_params()
    ((char *)param) + data_offset

This commit fixes the bug.
