Yes, thanks!

If it's uninitialized, it should be 0 (the structure is kzalloc'd, and
the call stack you point to clearly shows it's at least been allocated
already). Also, if it's uninitialized, then you should be BUG'ing even
without this patch; the patch you've bisected to is only modifying the
*second* (or later) attempt to send the command, and it's using the same
'ec_dev' structure.

Furthermore, the only assignments to this 'proto_version' field look
like they're only writing one of 0, 2, 3, or

min(EC_HOST_REQUEST_VERSION, fls(proto_info->protocol_versions) - 1)

. I don't see where 0xffff comes from.

So...is there any chance we've got a heap corruption somewhere?
Somebody's overwriting 'ec_dev->proto_version' accidentally?

Brian
