tty: fix possible null-ptr-defer in spk_ttyio_release
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Run the following tests on the qemu platform:

syzkaller:~# modprobe speakup_audptr
 input: Speakup as /devices/virtual/input/input4
 initialized device: /dev/synth, node (MAJOR 10, MINOR 125)
 speakup 3.1.6: initialized
 synth name on entry is: (null)
 synth probe

spk_ttyio_initialise_ldisc failed because tty_kopen_exclusive returned
failed (errno -16), then remove the module, we will get a null-ptr-defer
problem, as follow:

syzkaller:~# modprobe -r speakup_audptr
 releasing synth audptr

 Dumping ftrace buffer:

in_synth->dev was not initialized during modprobe, so we add check
for in_synth->dev to fix this bug.
