Subject: [patch] gadgetfs: use after free in dev_release()
Date: Fri, 23 Aug 2013 08:14:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130823081449.GA31293@elgon.mountain> (raw)

The call to put_dev() releases "dev".  Hopefully, we don't need to set
the state to STATE_DEV_DISABLED anyway so I have removed those lines.

Static checker stuff.  I haven't tested this, but I'm pretty sure it's
correct.
