However,\nnot initializing all members may cause subtle issues, which are only\nexposed when CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN or CONFIG_INIT_STACK_NONE is\nenabled.\n\nltc428_clk_provider_setup() does not fill in any parent clocks, and\nassumes that init.num_parents is NULL.  However, the latter in\nuninitialized, and thus may cause a crash.\n\nMake sure all members are fully initialized, to fix such bugs, and to\navoid future breakage when converting drivers to a different method for\nspecifying the parents.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":3,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":2.8,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
