Subject: [PATCH] hwspinlock/core: Fix unbalanced module_get on error path
Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2012 22:24:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1355343897-17063-1-git-send-email-ido@wizery.com> (raw)
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.
