Subject: [PATCH] tc1100-wmi: add error checks in module_init
Date: Sun, 21 Sep 2008 23:35:00 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080921143459.GD8790@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

There are sevaral bugs in module_init and module_exit for tc1100-wmi.

- No error handlings for platform_device_alloc() and platform_device_add()

- tc1100_device is not freeed in module_exit

This patch fixes these bugs by using platform_device_register_simple()
and platform_device_unregister() respectively.

This change needs to change the probe function to pass platform_device
to add_fs() and makes add_fs() use it rather than the variable tc1100_device.
Because tc1100_device is not initialized yet when probe function
is called. (tc1100_device is initialized as the return value from
platform_device_register_simple() but probe function is called in
platform_device_register_simple())
