xhci_alloc_segments_for_ring() builds a list of xhci_segments and links the tail to head at the end (forming a ring). When it bails out for OOM reasons half-way through, it tries to destroy its half-built list with xhci_free_segments_for_ring(), even though it is not a ring yet. This causes a null-pointer dereference upon hitting the last element. Furthermore, one of its callers (xhci_ring_alloc()) mistakenly believes the output parameters to be valid upon this kind of OOM failure, and calls xhci_ring_free() on them. Since the (incomplete) list/ring should already be destroyed in that case, this would lead to a use after free. This patch fixes those issues by having xhci_alloc_segments_for_ring() destroy its half-built, non-circular list manually and destroying the invalid struct xhci_ring in xhci_ring_alloc() with a plain kfree(). This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.31, that contains the commit 0ebbab37 "USB: xhci: Ring allocation and initialization." A separate patch will need to be developed for kernels older than 3.4, since the ring allocation code was refactored in that kernel.
