commit5c6679b5cbupstream. A widget's "dirty" list_head, much like its "list" list_head, eventually chains back to a list_head on the snd_soc_card itself. This means that the list can stick around even after the widget (or all widgets) have been freed. Currently, however, widgets that are in the dirty list when freed remain there, corrupting the entire list and leading to memory errors and undefined behavior when the list is next accessed or modified. I encountered this issue when a component failed to probe relatively late in snd_soc_bind_card(), causing it to bail out and call soc_cleanup_card_resources(), which eventually called snd_soc_dapm_free() with widgets that were still dirty from when they'd been added.

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.
