If probe() fails anywhere beyond the point where sdma_get_firmware() is called, then a kernel oops may occur. Problematic sequence of events: 1. probe() calls sdma_get_firmware(), which schedules the firmware callback to run when firmware becomes available, using the sdma instance structure as the context 2. probe() encounters an error, which deallocates the sdma instance structure 3. firmware becomes available, firmware callback is called with deallocated sdma instance structure 4. use after free - kernel oops ! Solution: only attempt to load firmware when we're certain that probe() will succeed. This guarantees that the firmware callback's context will remain valid. Note that the remove() path is unaffected by this issue: the firmware loader will increment the driver module's use count, ensuring that the module cannot be unloaded while the firmware callback is pending or running.

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.
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.
