commitf247f0a82aupstream. If ucsi_init() fails for some reason (e.g. ucsi_register_port() fails or general communication failure to the PPM), particularly at any point after the GET_CAPABILITY command had been issued, this results in unwinding the initialization and returning an error. However the ucsi structure's ucsi_capability member retains its current value, including likely a non-zero num_connectors. And because ucsi_init() itself is done in a workqueue a UCSI interface driver will be unaware that it failed and may think the ucsi_register() call was completely successful. Later, if ucsi_unregister() is called, due to this stale ucsi->cap value it would try to access the items in the ucsi->connector array which might not be in a proper state or not even allocated at all and results in NULL or invalid pointer dereference. Fix this by clearing the ucsi->cap value to 0 during the error path of ucsi_init() in order to prevent a later ucsi_unregister() from entering the connector cleanup loop.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
