carl9170: fix debugfs crashes
commit 6ee6d1cb391ca85b419f8d18bdfb1f020a5e859c upstream. Ben Greear reported: > I see lots of instability as soon as I load up the carl9710 NIC. > My application is going to be poking at it's debugfs files... > > BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in carl9170_debugfs_read+0xd5/0x2a0 > [carl9170] at addr 0xffff8801bc1208b0 > Read of size 8 by task btserver/5888 > ======================================================================= > BUG kmalloc-256 (Tainted: G W ): kasan: bad access detected > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > INFO: Allocated in seq_open+0x50/0x100 age=2690 cpu=2 pid=772 >... This breakage was caused by the introduction of intermediate fops in debugfs by commit 9fd4dcece43a ("debugfs: prevent access to possibly dead file_operations at file open") Thankfully, the original/real fops are still available in d_fsdata.
