commit1f8763c59cupstream. John Keeping reported and posted a patch for a potential UAF in rawmidi sequencer destruction: the snd_rawmidi_dev_seq_free() may be called after the associated rawmidi object got already freed. After a deeper look, it turned out that the bug is rather the incorrect private_free call order for a snd_seq_device. The snd_seq_device private_free gets called at the release callback of the sequencer device object, while this was rather expected to be executed at the snd_device call chains that runs at the beginning of the whole card-free procedure. It's been broken since the rewrite of sequencer-device binding (although it hasn't surfaced because the sequencer device release happens usually right along with the card device release). This patch corrects the private_free call to be done in the right place, at snd_seq_device_dev_free().

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.
