From: Lukas Wunner lukas@wunner.de Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2020 20:07:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] spi: bcm2835: Fix use-after-free on unbind
bcm2835_spi_remove() accesses the driver's private data after calling spi_unregister_controller() even though that function releases the last reference on the spi_controller and thereby frees the private data.
Fix by switching over to the new devm_spi_alloc_master() helper which keeps the private data accessible until the driver has unbound.
