Subject: [PATCH 05/11] Driver core: Fix error handling in bus_add_driver().
Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2008 15:48:01 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1203637687-7273-5-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080221234649.GB7128@kroah.com>
From: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com>
- If the allocation of ->priv fails, the reference on the bus
must be dropped.
- If adding the kobject fails, kobject_put must be called to
clean things up.
