Subject: [PATCH linux-next v2] firewire: fw_device_init: 'minor' may be used uninitialized
Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2013 14:24:36 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1361222676-113069-1-git-send-email-tim.gardner@canonical.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1361222343-112898-1-git-send-email-tim.gardner@canonical.com>

'firewire: convert to idr_alloc()' accidentally orphaned 'minor'.

If this patch is correct, then it also ought to go to stable
if it misses 3.8 final.

v2 - Better commit subject
