Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ASoC: core: fix the memory leak in case of device_add() failure
Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2012 00:56:05 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1356454565.21958.2.camel@cliu38-desktop-build> (raw)
After called device_initialize(), even device_add() returns
error, we still need use the put_device() to release the reference
to call rtd_release(), which will do the free() action.
