[ Upstream commit d59be579fa932c46b908f37509f319cbd4ca9a68 ]
mdp5_get_global_state runs the risk of hitting a -EDEADLK when acquiring
the modeset lock, but currently mdp5_pipe_release doesn't check for if
an error is returned. Because of this, there is a possibility of
mdp5_pipe_release hitting a NULL dereference error.
To avoid this, let's have mdp5_pipe_release check if
mdp5_get_global_state returns an error and propogate that error.
Changes since v1:
- Separated declaration and initialization of *new_state to avoid
compiler warning
- Fixed some spelling mistakes in commit message
Changes since v2:
- Return 0 in case where hwpipe is NULL as this is considered normal
behavior
- Added 2nd patch in series to fix a similar NULL dereference issue in
mdp5_mixer_release

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.
