power: supply: ab8500: Fix external_power_changed race

Browse source

[ Upstream commit a5299ce4e9 ]

ab8500_btemp_external_power_changed() dereferences di->btemp_psy,
which gets sets in ab8500_btemp_probe() like this:

        di->btemp_psy = devm_power_supply_register(dev, &ab8500_btemp_desc,
                                                   &psy_cfg);

As soon as devm_power_supply_register() has called device_add()
the external_power_changed callback can get called. So there is a window
where ab8500_btemp_external_power_changed() may get called while
di->btemp_psy has not been set yet leading to a NULL pointer dereference.

Fixing this is easy. The external_power_changed callback gets passed
the power_supply which will eventually get stored in di->btemp_psy,
so ab8500_btemp_external_power_changed() can simply directly use
the passed in psy argument which is always valid.

And the same applies to ab8500_fg_external_power_changed().
