Subject: [PATCH] usb: gadget: pch_udc: don't update td->next after it has been released to the pool
Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2017 13:28:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170328122850.18819-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Writing to td->next should be avoided after td has been freed using
dma_pool_free. The intent was to nullify the next pointer, but this
is potentially dangerous once it is back in the pool. Remove it.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1091173 ("Write tp pointer after free")
