If anyone has any objections, please let me know. =============== commit c957e8f084e0d21febcd6b8a0ea9631eccc92f36 upstream. Once the current message is finished, the driver notifies SPI core about this by calling spi_finalize_current_message(). This function queues next message to be transferred. If there are more messages in the queue, it is possible that the driver is asked to transfer the next message at this point. When spi_finalize_current_message() returns the driver clears the drv_data->cur_chip pointer to NULL. The problem is that if the driver already started the next message clearing drv_data->cur_chip will cause NULL pointer dereference which crashes the kernel like: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000048 IP: [] cs_deassert+0x18/0x70 [spi_pxa2xx_platform] PGD 78bb8067 PUD 37712067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 11 Comm: ksoftirqd/1 Tainted: G O 3.18.0-rc4-mjo #5 Hardware name: Intel Corp.
