Subject: [PATCH] watchdog: da9052: Fix invalid free of devm_ allocated data
Date: Thu, 22 Nov 2012 10:13:04 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1353559384-26570-1-git-send-email-tushar.behera@linaro.org> (raw)

It is not required to free devm_ allocated data. Since kref_put
needs a valid release function, da9052_wdt_release_resources()
is not deleted.

Fixes following warning.
drivers/watchdog/da9052_wdt.c:59:1-6: WARNING: invalid free of
devm_ allocated data
