From: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> When setup_sorting() is called, 'str' is passed to strtok_r() but it's not checked to have a valid pointer. As strtok_r() accepts NULL pointer on a first argument and use the third argument in that case, it can cause a trouble since our third argument, tmp, is not initialized.
