[PATCH v3] usb: gadget: aspeed_udc: avoid past-the-end iterator in dequeue
Posted by Maoyi Xie 3 days, 13 hours ago
ast_udc_ep_dequeue() declares the loop cursor `req` outside the
list_for_each_entry(). After the loop it tests `&req->req != _req`
to decide whether the request was found. If the queue holds no
match, `req` is past-the-end. It then aliases
container_of(&ep->queue, struct ast_udc_request, queue) via offset
cancellation. Whether that synthetic address equals `_req` depends
on heap layout. The function can return 0 without dequeueing
anything.

Default `rc` to -EINVAL and set it to 0 only inside the match
branch. `req` is no longer read after the loop, so the past-the-end
dereference goes away. No extra cursor variable or post-loop test
is needed.

v3: Switch to Andrew Jeffery's shape: default rc to -EINVAL, set
    rc=0 inside the match branch, drop the post-loop check. Smaller
    diff, no extra cursor variable, no goto. Same semantic fix as v2.
