[patch 29/29] USB: hidinput_hid_event() oops fix

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Pete Zaitcev <[email protected]>

It seems that I see a bug in hidinput_hid_event.  The check for NULL can never
work, becaue &hidinput->input is nonzero at all times.
