Subject: [RESEND v2] hid-elo: update the reference count of the usb device structure
Date: Thu, 29 Jul 2021 01:45:12 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210729004451.GA783805@pc> (raw)
Use usb_get_dev() to increment the reference count of the usb device
structure in order to avoid releasing the structure while it is still in
use. And use usb_put_dev() to decrement the reference count and thus,
when it will be equal to 0 the structure will be released.
