Subject[PATCH 5.4 103/168] staging: gasket: Fix incongruency in handling of sysfs entries creation
Date
From: Luis Mendes <luis.p.mendes@gmail.com>

commit 9195d762042b0e5e4ded63606b4b30a93cba4400 upstream.

Fix incongruency in handling of sysfs entries creation.
This issue could cause invalid memory accesses, by not properly
detecting the end of the sysfs attributes array.

Fixes: 84c45d5f3bf1 ("staging: gasket: Replace macro __ATTR with __ATTR_NULL")
