Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> ALSA: hda/hdmi: Fix breakage at probing nvhdmi-mcp driver<br /> <br /> After restructuring and splitting the HDMI codec driver code, each<br /> HDMI codec driver contains the own build_controls and build_pcms ops.<br /> A copy-n-paste error put the wrong entries for nvhdmi-mcp driver; both<br /> build_controls and build_pcms are swapped. Unfortunately both<br /> callbacks have the very same form, and the compiler didn&amp;#39;t complain<br /> it, either. This resulted in a NULL dereference because the PCM<br /> instance hasn&amp;#39;t been initialized at calling the build_controls<br /> callback.<br /> <br /> Fix it by passing the proper entries.
