Subject[RESEND PATCH v2 2/2] serial: samsung: Fix possible out of bounds access on non-DT platform
Date
On non-DeviceTree platforms, the index of serial device is a static
variable incremented on each probe. It is incremented even if deferred
probe happens when getting the clock in s3c24xx_serial_init_port().

This index is used for referencing elements of statically allocated
s3c24xx_serial_ports array. In case of re-probe, the index will point
outside of this array leading to memory corruption.

Increment the index only on successful probe.

Reported-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <b.zolnierkie@samsung.com>
Fixes: b497549a035c ("[ARM] S3C24XX: Split serial driver into core and per-cpu drivers")
Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <k.kozlowski@samsung.com>

Not cc-ing stable because:
1. It is just a possibility, not really reproduced (I don't have non-DT
platform).
2. I am not sure whether deferred probe may happen on non-DT platform.

Changes since v1:
1. New patch.
