Subject: [PATCH] amba: fix refcount underflow if amba_device_add() fails
Date: Tue, 24 May 2022 10:51:39 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220524025139.40212-1-wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com> (raw)
"ARM: 9192/1: amba: fix memory leak in amba_device_try_add()" leads
to a refcount underflow if amba_device_add() fails, which called by
of_amba_device_create(), the of_amba_device_create() already exists
the error handling, so amba_put_device() only need to be added into
amba_deferred_retry().
