If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jason Gerecke commit 2a5e597c6bb1b873e473e5f57147e9e5d2755430 upstream. The wacom_get_hdev_data function is used to find and return a reference to the "other half" of a Wacom device (i.e., the touch device associated with a pen, or vice-versa). To ensure these references are properly accounted for, the function is supposed to automatically increment the refcount before returning. This was not done, however, for devices which have pen & touch on different interfaces of the same USB device. This can lead to a WARNING ("refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free") when removing the module or device as we call kref_put() more times than kref_get(). Triggering an "actual" use- after-free would be difficult since both devices will disappear nearly- simultaneously. To silence this warning and prevent the potential error, we need to increment the refcount for all cases within wacom_get_hdev_data.
