Subject: [patch 2/5] [PATCH 2/5] st: clean up dev cleanup in st_probe
Date: Sat, 18 Aug 2012 15:20:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120818192044.204705473@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20120818192036.751334179@suse.com

[-- Attachment #1: st-clean-up-dev-cleanup-in-st_probe --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1230 bytes --]

st_probe leaves a cdev pointer hanging around that is compared
during the error path and freed later. There's no need for the pointer
to hang around at all. So we free it immediately and simplify the error
handling.
