Linux kernel source tree
The initialization of MIDI devices that are found on some LINE6 drivers are currently done in a racy way; namely, the MIDI buffer instance is allocated and initialized in each private_init callback while the communication with the interface is already started via line6_init_cap_control() call before that point. This may lead to Oops in line6_data_received() when a spurious event is received, as reported by syzkaller. This patch moves the MIDI initialization to line6_init_cap_control() as well instead of the too-lately-called private_init for avoiding the race. Also this reduces slightly more lines, so it's a win-win change.

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.
