From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Return-path: From: Guenter Roeck To: linux-watchdog@vger.kernel.org Cc: Wim Van Sebroeck , Pratyush Anand , Hans de Goede , Damien Riegel , linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Guenter Roeck Subject: [PATCH v2 4/6] watchdog: da9052_wdt: Drop reference counting Date: Fri, 25 Dec 2015 16:01:43 -0800 Message-Id: <1451088105-1722-5-git-send-email-linux@roeck-us.net> In-Reply-To: <1451088105-1722-1-git-send-email-linux@roeck-us.net> References: <1451088105-1722-1-git-send-email-linux@roeck-us.net> List-ID: Reference counting is now implemented in the watchdog core and no longer required in watchdog drivers. Since it was implememented a no-op, and since the local memory is allocated with devm_kzalloc(), the reference counting code in the driver really did not really work anyway, and this patch effectively fixes a bug which could cause a crash on unloading if the watchdog device was still open.
