Subject[PATCHv2 1/1] Preventive fix in sound module
Date
If the timer object is created without the card for entries
"SNDRV_TIMER_CLASS_CARD" and "SNDRV_TIMER_CLASS_PCM", then
while reading the sound info entry in function
"snd_timer_proc_read" the card information is directly
dereferenced without checking for NULL and hence kernel
panic occur. So as preventive measure while the creating
the sound timer object is created the card information
availability is checked for the mentioned entries and
returned error if its NULL.
