Chen Zhongjin a574359e2e media: dvb-core: Fix ignored return value in dvb_register_frontend()
In dvb_register_frontend(), dvb_register_device() is possible to fail
but its return value is ignored.

It will cause use-after-free when module is removed, because in
dvb_unregister_frontend() it tries to unregister a not registered
device.

BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in dvb_remove_device+0x18b/0x1f0 [dvb_core]

 dvb_remove_device+0x18b/0x1f0 [dvb_core]
 dvb_unregister_frontend+0x7b/0x130 [dvb_core]
 vidtv_bridge_remove+0x6e/0x160 [dvb_vidtv_bridge]
 ...

Fix this by catching return value of dvb_register_device().
However the fe->refcount can't be put to zero immediately, because
there are still modules calling dvb_frontend_detach() when
dvb_register_frontend() fails.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
