Indeed. Nice to catch it. The bug affects Linux kernel v5.5 or later.

Acked-by: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@sakamocchi.jp>

In kernel v5.10 or later, we can use 'list_entry_is_head()' macro added
by a commit e130816164e2 ("include/linux/list.h: add a macro to test if
entry is pointing to the head"). However the development of ALSA firewire
stack is out-of-tree repository for my convenience to backport it to kernel
v4.17 or later (I need testers...), so I prefer your change.


Thanks

Takashi Sakamoto
