Subject: [patch] Staging: quickstart: free after input_unregister_device()
Date: Fri, 12 Nov 2010 05:04:43 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101112050443.GD3533@bicker> (raw)
input_unregister_device() releases "quickstart_input" so the
input_free_device() is a double free. Also I noticed that there is a
memory leak if the call to input_register_device() fails.
