Maxwell Doose 820c4f1535 iio: adc: lpc32xx: Initialize completion before requesting IRQ
commit e561b35633 upstream.

In the report from Jaeyoung Chung:

"lpc32xx_adc_probe() in drivers/iio/adc/lpc32xx_adc.c registers its
interrupt handler with devm_request_irq() before it initializes
st->completion with init_completion(). If an interrupt arrives after
devm_request_irq() and before init_completion(), the handler calls
complete() on an uninitialized completion, causing a kernel panic.

The probe path, in lpc32xx_adc_probe():

    iodev = devm_iio_device_alloc(&pdev->dev, sizeof(*st)); /* st kzalloc-zeroed */
    ...
    retval = devm_request_irq(&pdev->dev, irq, lpc32xx_adc_isr, 0,
                              LPC32XXAD_NAME, st);           /* register handler */
    ...
    init_completion(&st->completion);                       /* initialize completion */

lpc32xx_adc_isr() calls complete():

    complete(&st->completion);

If the device raises an interrupt before init_completion() runs,
complete() acquires the uninitialized wait.lock and walks the zeroed
task_list in swake_up_locked(). The zeroed task_list makes list_empty()
return false, so swake_up_locked() dereferences a NULL list entry,
triggering a KASAN wild-memory-access."

Fix the chance of a spurious IRQ causing an uninitialized pointer
dereference by moving init_completion() above devm_request_irq().

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.
