Subject: [PATCH] IR/imon: remove bad ir_input_dev use
Date: Tue, 27 Jul 2010 22:22:48 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100728022248.GA5345@redhat.com> (raw)
The ir_input_dev gets filled in by __ir_input_register, the one
allocated in imon_init_idev was being overwritten by the correct one
shortly after it was initialized (ultimately resulting in a memory
leak). Additionally, there was an ill-advised memcpy into that
extraneous ir_input_dev which gets fixed by this.
Ill-advised memcpy pointed out by Dmitry Torokhov, bad usage of
ir_input_dev pointed out by Maxim Levitsky (in mceusb.c, which copied the
bug from here).
