Subject: [PATCH 1/3] auxdisplay: ht16k33: do not try to free fbdev
Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2017 12:54:36 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170131205438.7531-1-dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com> (raw)
'fbdev' is allocated as part of larger ht16k33_priv structure; trying to
free it will cause troubles.
Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>

Note that the patches have not been tried on a real hardware.
I am pretty confident in #1 and #3, but #2 is larger and it would be great
if someone with hardware tried running it before it gets applied.
Thanks!
