Subject: patch "USB: serial: omninet: fix reference leaks at open" added to usb-linus
Date: Thu, 09 Mar 2017 11:14:20 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1489054460252191@kroah.com> (raw)
This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: serial: omninet: fix reference leaks at open
to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: USB: serial: omninet: fix reference leaks at open
This driver needlessly took another reference to the tty on open, a
reference which was then never released on close. This lead to not just
a leak of the tty, but also a driver reference leak that prevented the
driver from being unloaded after a port had once been opened.
Fixes: 4a90f09b20f4 ("tty: usb-serial krefs")
