[alsa-devel] [PATCH v2 1/3] ASoC: SOF: fix fault at driver unload after failed probe

[Pierre-Louis Bossart]

From: Kai Vehmanen <kai.vehmanen at linux.intel.com>

If sof_machine_check() fails during driver probe, the IPC
state is not initialized and this will lead to a NULL
dereference at driver unload. Example log is as follows:

[ 1535.980630] sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: error: no matching ASoC machine driver found - aborting probe
[ 1535.980631] sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: error: failed to get machine info -19
[ 1535.980632] sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: error: sof_probe_work failed err: -19
[ 1550.798373] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
...
[ 1550.798393] Call Trace:
