Subject: [PATCH 3/3] staging: most: fix id leak
Date: Sun, 22 Nov 2015 22:30:56 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1448211656-15829-3-git-send-email-sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1448211656-15829-1-git-send-email-sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com>

If create_most_inst_obj() fails we returned an error pointer but we
missed releasing id.
