From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Guenter Roeck Subject: [PATCH] spi/pl022: Fix device remove function Date: Sun, 19 Aug 2012 10:44:17 -0700 Message-ID: <1345398258-4153-1-git-send-email-linux@roeck-us.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: Mark Brown , Guenter Roeck To: spi-devel-general-5NWGOfrQmneRv+LV9MX5uipxlwaOVQ5f@public.gmane.org Return-path: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Errors-To: spi-devel-general-bounces-5NWGOfrQmneRv+LV9MX5uipxlwaOVQ5f@public.gmane.org List-Id: linux-spi.vger.kernel.org The call sequence spi_alloc_master/spi_register_master/spi_unregister_master is complete; it reduces the device reference count to zero, which results in device memory being freed. An extra call to spi_master_put is unnecessary and results in an access to free memory. Drop it.
