Subject: [PATCH] staging: gasket: Fix incongruency in handling of sysfs entries creation
Git-commit: 9195d762042b0e5e4ded63606b4b30a93cba4400
Patch-mainline: v5.7-rc3
References: git-fixes
Fix incongruency in handling of sysfs entries creation.
This issue could cause invalid memory accesses, by not properly
detecting the end of the sysfs attributes array.
Fixes: 84c45d5f3bf1 ("staging: gasket: Replace macro __ATTR with __ATTR_NULL")
