bcdma_get_*() and udma_get_*() checks if bchan/rchan/tchan/rflow is
already allocated by checking if it has a NON NULL value. For the
error cases, bchan/rchan/tchan/rflow will have error value
and bcdma_get_*() and udma_get_*() considers this as already allocated
(PASS) since the error values are NON NULL. This results in
NULL pointer dereference error while de-referencing
bchan/rchan/tchan/rflow.

I think this can happen when a channel request fails and we get a second
request coming and faces with the not cleanup up tchan/rchan/bchan/rflow
from the previous failure.
Interesting that I have not faced with this, but it is a valid oversight
from me.

Thank you for reviewing.

Got into this issue when all the PCIe endpoint functions were requesting
for a MEMCOPY channel (total 22 endpoint functions) specifically in
bcdma_get_bchan() where the scenario you mentioned above happened.

Vignesh asked me to fix it for all udma_get_*().

Reset the value of bchan/rchan/tchan/rflow to NULL if the allocation
actually fails.

Fixes: 017794739702 ("dmaengine: ti: k3-udma: Initial support for K3 BCDMA")
Fixes: 25dcb5dd7b7c ("dmaengine: ti: New driver for K3 UDMA")

Will this patch apply at any of these?
25dcb5dd7b7c does not have BCDMA (bchan)
017794739702 does not contain PKTDMA (tflow)

I can probably split this patch
017794739702 for bchan and 25dcb5dd7b7c for bchan/rchan/tchan/rflow
