Srinivas Pandruvada f07b60b7c3 iio: hid-sensors: Prevent crash during hot-unplug ... When hid sensor hub is unplugged, there is a crash in iio_device_unregister_trigger_consumer. In a typical IIO driver when remove is called, it will unregister and free trigger and then it will call iio_device_free. The function iio_trigger_free() will free the allocated memory for trigger. If this trigger was assigned to iio_dev->trig, then it should be set to NULL. Othewise when iio_device_free() is called later, it finally calls iio_device_unregsister_trigger(), which checks for if (indio_dev->trig) iio_trigger_put(indio_dev->trig); If indio_dev->trig is not set to NULL, it calls iio_trigger_put on a bad pointer causing crash. This scenerio can happen in any driver, which is storing trigger pointer in iio_dev structure and following current procedure during remove.
