[ Upstream commit5ddb0869bf] I've stumbled upon a kernel crash and the logs pointed me towards the lp5562 driver: > <4>[306013.841294] lp5562 0-0030: Direct firmware load for lp5562 failed with error -2 > <4>[306013.894990] lp5562 0-0030: Falling back to user helper > ... > <3>[306073.924886] lp5562 0-0030: firmware request failed > <1>[306073.939456] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 > <4>[306074.251011] PC is at _raw_spin_lock+0x1c/0x58 > <4>[306074.255539] LR is at release_firmware+0x6c/0x138 > ... After taking a look I noticed firmware_release() could be called with either NULL or a dangling pointer.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
