6.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jeffin Philip commit 6e74ac5c596fd246e37eadfc354567179ccbe9aa upstream. usb_put_function_instance() attempts to dereference fd inside fi struct to get mod in uvc_alloc_inst() error path. However, fd is not allocated until later in try_get_usb_function_instance() after allocating fi in uvc_alloc_inst() and thus guranteed to be null in error path. Fix this by adding a null check for fi->fd that returns if fd is null.
