Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y 2/2] usb: gadget: f_printer: take kref only for successful open
Date: Sun, 19 Jul 2026 10:53:42 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260719145342.5397-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260719145342.5397-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Xu Rao <raoxu@uniontech.com>

[ Upstream commit 30adce93d5c4a5a1ec29d9249e3fdfcc391d406b ]

printer_open() returns -EBUSY when the character device is already
open, but it increments dev->kref regardless of the return value. VFS
does not call ->release() for a failed open, so every rejected second
open permanently leaks one reference.

Move kref_get() into the successful-open branch.
