[PATCH] usb: dwc3: host: fix props[] overflow and dangling xhci pointer on error

From: David Collin <hidden>
Date: 2026-09-04 14:03:04
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: designware usb3 drd ip driver, the rest, usb subsystem · Maintainers: Thinh Nguyen, Linus Torvalds, Greg Kroah-Hartman

props[] is sized for exactly the number of properties dwc3_host_init()
can populate, leaving no slot for the NULL terminator
property_entries_dup() requires when usb3_lpm_capable,
usb2_lpm_disable, and the <=3.00a PED quirk are all true. Size props[]
for one more slot.

This also clears dwc->xhci on the error path and adds a NULL check in
dwc3_host_exit(), since a failed dwc3_host_init() otherwise leaves a
dangling pointer that dwc3_host_exit() dereferences unconditionally on
removal/shutdown.

Fixes: 8da7644493b4 ("usb: dwc3: Specify maximum number of XHCI interrupters")
