Subject: [PATCH] video: fix invalid free of devm_ allocated data
Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2013 23:55:24 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1364428524-13821-1-git-send-email-epure.andrei@gmail.com> (raw)
The objects allocated by devm_* APIs are managed by devres and are freed when
the device is detached. Hence there is no need to use kfree() explicitly.
Patch found using coccinelle.
