Subject: [PATCH v2] iio: trigger: free trigger resource correctly
Date: Thu, 19 Jan 2017 19:47:38 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170120034730.GA8864@d830.WORKGROUP> (raw)

These stand-alone trigger drivers were using iio_trigger_put()
where they should have been using iio_trigger_free().  The
iio_trigger_put() adds a module_put which is bad since they
never did a module_get.

In the sysfs driver, module_get/put's are used as triggers are
added & removed. This extra module_put() occurs on an error path
in the probe routine (probably rare).

In the bfin-timer & interrupt trigger drivers, the module resources
are not explicitly managed, so it's doing a put on something that
was never get'd.  It occurs on the probe error path and on the
remove path (not so rare).

Tested with the sysfs trigger driver.
The bfin & interrupt drivers were build tested & inspected only.

Changes in v2:
Renamed probe jump label to say free instead of put.
Added further explanation to commit log.

Note from v1:
Patches to use devm_* funcs are ready to follow this for
the interrupt & bfin-timer triggers.
