Users of find_cable_index_by_name() will cause a kernel hang as the while loop counter is never incremented and end condition is never reached.
Fixes: commit 73b6ecdb93e8 ("extcon: Redefine the unique id of supported external connectors without 'enum extcon' type") Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Roger Quadros <rogerq@ti.com> --- drivers/extcon/extcon.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+)
