From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: ido@wizery.com (Ido Yariv) Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2012 22:24:57 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] hwspinlock/core: Fix unbalanced module_get on error path Message-ID: <1355343897-17063-1-git-send-email-ido@wizery.com> To: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org List-Id: linux-arm-kernel.lists.infradead.org In case pm_runtime_get_sync() fails, __hwspin_lock_request will exit without calling module_put. As a result, the module could never be removed. Fix this.
