If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold commit 4f9785cc99feeb3673993b471f646b4dbaec2cc1 upstream. In case a device is left in "boot-mode" we must not register any port devices in order to avoid a NULL-pointer dereference on open due to missing endpoints. This could be used by a malicious device to trigger an OOPS: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000030 ...
