klp_module_coming() is called for every module appearing in the system. It sets obj->mod to a patched module for klp_object obj. Unfortunately it leaves it set even if an error happens later in the function and the patched module is not allowed to be loaded. klp_is_object_loaded() uses obj->mod variable and could currently give a wrong return value. The bug is probably harmless as of now. Signed-off-by: Miroslav Benes <mbenes@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com>Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <redacted>
