Subject: [PATCH v2] vfio: fix noiommu vfio_iommu_group_get reference count
Date: Fri, 11 Aug 2017 15:16:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1502457366-3562-1-git-send-email-eric.auger@redhat.com> (raw)

In vfio_iommu_group_get() we want to increase the reference
count of the iommu group.

In noiommu case, the group does not exist and is allocated.
iommu_group_add_device() increases the group ref count. However we
then call iommu_group_put() which decrements it.

This leads to a "refcount_t: underflow WARN_ON".

Only decrement the ref count in case of iommu_group_add_device
failure.

v1 -> v2:
put the group in case iommu_group_add_device failed
