[PATCH 2/6] ipack: ipoctal: fix tty registration race

From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-09-17 11:50:24
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: industry pack subsystem (ipack), the rest · Maintainers: Vaibhav Gupta, Jens Taprogge, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Linus Torvalds

Make sure to set the tty class-device driver data before registering the
tty to avoid having a racing open() dereference a NULL pointer.

Fixes: 9c1d784afc6f ("Staging: ipack/devices/ipoctal: Get rid of ipoctal_list.")
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org      # 3.7
