Subject: [PATCH] IR/mceusb: remove bad ir_input_dev use
Date: Tue, 27 Jul 2010 22:24:00 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100728022400.GA5398@redhat.com> (raw)
The ir_input_dev gets filled in by __ir_input_register, the one
allocated in mceusb_init_input_dev was being overwritten by the correct
one shortly after it was initialized (ultimately resulting in a memory
leak). This bug was inherited from imon.c, and was pointed out to me by
Maxim Levitsky.
