Component match callback function needs to check if expected data is
passed to it. Without this check, it can cause a NULL pointer
dereference when another driver registers a component before i915
drivers have their component master fully bind.
Fixes: 7b882fe3e3e8b ("ALSA: hda - handle multiple i915 device instances")

You rather need to add "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" line to the patch
itself (around sign-off block), not actually Cc'ing the mail.
I edited manually, but please do it so at the next time.
Although I applied the patch as-is now, I wonder...

Can NULL dev->driver be really seen? I thought the components are
added by the drivers, hence they ought to have the driver field set.
But there can be corner cases I overlooked.
thanks,

Hi Takashi,
When I try using component_add in a different driver (usb4 in my
case), I think dev->driver here is NULL because the i915 drivers do
not have their component master fully bound when this new component is
registered. When I test it, it seems to be causing a crash.
Would it be okay for me to resend a new patch with the flags
corrected? I have mistakenly added Heikki and Mika as "Signed-off-by"
instead of "Suggested-by". I am sorry for that.
Thanks,
Won

Hm, from where component_add*() is called? Basically dev->driver must
be already set before the corresponding driver gets bound at
__driver_probe_deviec(). So, if the device is added to component from
the corresponding driver's probe, dev->driver must be non-NULL.

Ah that's bad. I'll reset the branch, then. Please resubmit
properly.
thanks,
Takashi
