4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.bell...@bootlin.com>
[ Upstream commit 63d22063073b0ab46d1e06fe633fb5de8f5c58e1 ]
The probe function is not allowed to fail after the RTC is registered
because the following may happen:
CPU0: CPU1:
sys_load_module()
do_init_module()
do_one_initcall()
cmos_do_probe()
rtc_device_register()
__register_chrdev()
cdev->owner = struct module*
open("/dev/rtc0")
rtc_device_unregister()
module_put()
free_module()
module_free(mod->module_core)
/* struct module *module is now
freed */
chrdev_open()
spin_lock(cdev_lock)
cdev_get()
try_module_get()
module_is_live()
/* dereferences already
freed struct module* */
