ASoC: Intel: avoid Oops if DMA setup fails commit 0efa3334d65b7f421ba12382dfa58f6ff5bf83c4 upstream. Currently in sst_dsp_new() if we get an error return from sst_dma_new() we just print an error message and then still complete the function successfully. This means that we are trying to run without sst->dma properly set up, which will result in NULL pointer dereference when sst->dma is later used. This was happening for me in sst_dsp_dma_get_channel(): struct sst_dma *dma = dsp->dma; ... dma->ch = dma_request_channel(mask, dma_chan_filter, dsp); This resulted in: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000018 IP: sst_dsp_dma_get_channel+0x4f/0x125 [snd_soc_sst_firmware] Fix this by adding proper error handling for the case where we fail to set up DMA. This change only affects Haswell and Broadwell systems. Baytrail systems explicilty opt-out of DMA via sst->pdata->resindex_dma_base being set to -1.
